[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scarnia:
Hi,

I was going crazy trying to figure whi my i9000 doesn't start. I broke the screen and i've replaced this with another. Seeing i wasn't able to boot, i did the Unbreakeable mod wich got me into download mode and i was able to falsh a rom. The problem is that my power button didn't work either to power off the device!

I've checked the button twice and it's ok (it shortcuts the two terminals when pressed). the problem seems to be that in the spots marked with red arrows in the picture below, i don't have any components and it seems that there were some in these places. I need help to confirm if there are components in those spots and in that case, help figuring out wich component it is (resistor / capactior...) and its value.

I would be greatly thankfull to anyone who can supply any information.

Thank you in advance.

Out of curiosity , I connected my phone to my PC and fired up Kies and BAM!!!!!, you have an update available. I did not capture the Kies screenshot, sorry, but here is a screenshot from my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] woodydog:
Nice. It's about time
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
isn't that the truth! I have checked every 24hours for the past several months! I know, a pure Android junkie!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Rybean:
I cannot find anywhere saying its been released. I'll check my wife's phone when she gets home.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] colbyfink:
How is it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
I searched the web today as well, but did not find anything. Do you have kies installed on your PC? There was a kies update detected and an update for my phone. Attached is the kies version
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_schieman:
just checked my phone via kies, and the up date to 4.1.1 was available. your phone must be at 50% charge to apply update. so im on the charger as we speak!!! will post results later!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RiPpeR_dUdE:
I can confirm, just connected and shows the update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jetpuck73:
Nice, I hope I can get kies to work!!!

Patiently waiting for a custom rom based on at&t release. Wish I knew how to do it myself.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rdy105:
Root?

Anyone try to root?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
So far so good! It seems to be pretty responsive, no lag as of yet ;), Google Now working as expected, face recognition(screen unlock) seems to be working OK, the recent apps has some additional options, when you open a file for the first time to associate it with an application is different, the pull down notification has some new options, there is this new Home Screen mode that allows you to pick between Basic and Easy mode, a blocking mode which all you to block notifications for particular scenarios you setup, and who knows what else I have missed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
Its not hard..lol Just install and connect via usb. I know tough, but I have faith in you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lisek99:
NICE! I can't wait to go home and do the update hopefully KIES works with me
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
LoL @ AT&T releasing it without dropping any leaks to us first. Like what they did with the Skyrocket.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
Yea, I think I might be done with the custom ROMS. I was flashing my phone every few days. But the CM10 stuff seems to be pretty impressive, especially with the nightlies
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Justinfedor:
I liked how I told everyone we at att were releasing the update very soon and everyone thought I was lying. Hmm. I do know what im talking about
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
Anyone try OTA in the US before using kies to see if its available? I checked earlier today, but no update was available
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
Now you have facts to stand-on, the people will now listen when you speak ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
Your presentation needs a lot of work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] n00b57:
I have a Canadian SGH-I747M and got the update Sunday Dec. 2 OTA automatically ready and waiting to install.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] colbyfink:
It was about how you came across. I think that's what turned most people off. And speaking in certainties when working for AT&T is a huge no-no, especially when it comes to updates. I have prior experience with it myself. It's always subject to change, there is a reason why they don't announce updates with a solid date. Just avoid being do arrogant in the future, and work on grammar because when you first posted saying "I seen it at work" it immediately lost credibility, and you'll be useful to the forums if that's what you wanna do. Also remember that there will always be skeptics because of those reasons, don't get so upset over it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rha_december:
Do I have to go back to stock to update it through Kies? Or can I just connect my phone on a custom rom and still update it? I know I'll lose root, but I'm just considering it at the moment.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 2015Ducatimulti:
I`m in michigan and had root and Cmw and I download the kies and installed it and ran Kies and it said there was update 4.1.1 and I updated my phone with no problems seems a lot more snappier, even though I lost root and Cmw.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
Sorry, should have been more specific. I know they got the update in Canada, but I was referring to the US
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jkabooter:
Great news... Even I connected to Kies Air to just checking something and boom... I have the update..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ScudMuffin:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-I747

Link to firmware from the ROM forums. This is stock and not rooted.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boogiemunster:
I had a custom ROM once and tried to do an update via kies and it did not end pretty. My phone would not apply the update and got stuck in a reboot loop. I had to flash it to stock to get out of the loop. So until its tested OR you don't mind going back to stock if it fails, then I would hold off if I were you. But then again, the world ends in 3 weeks, so why not!! YOLO!!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fatlardo:
Can't wait to try this at home!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RiPpeR_dUdE:
I didn't.. it did say if you were rooted it may fail, but I went ahead and updated anyway. So far, I've completed the update on two phones; both rooted and no problems.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetluva:
I noticed this when I was out Friday night at a dark bar as I was lowering my brightness so I wouldn't be blinded by the screen while texting. I lowered the brightness all the way down, and the backlight essentially turned off; at first, I thought the phone turned off sporadically so I turned it back on...but it turned out that the screen was on, but the backlight was off.

After some more investigating, it seems like this is a hardware issue as I did a complete hard reset and the problem persists. Strange, but my replacement should be shipping sometime soon. Has this happened to anyone else?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcls:
Accidentally gave you a thanks Lol. Mine doesn't do this, when I go to the wick settings, tap brightness, and slide it all the way down it just gets dim, doesn't turn off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netsyd:
Same. No lights out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxSilent22xX:
When your screen goes out are you able to adjust the brightness afterwards?

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetluva:
Yes, but I didn't realize this since I was in a really dark bar. When I got home, I played around with it and noticed that sliding the brightness all the way down to 0 resulted in the backlight turning off, and then the screen turning off within seconds. Very strange behavior.

Just something that I wanted people to be aware of so they can get their units swapped out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nba1341:
Do you have a custom rom installed?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetluva:
Nope, stock everything. Locked bootloader, unrooted.

The screen actually doesn't turn off I found out. The backlight is off completely, but the screen stays on for the preset amount of time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nate3D:
Is there an app/program or is it otherwise possible to share a usb device plugged into an android phone with a desktop computer, or vice versa over wifi or bluetooth. For example plugging a DSLR into my android phone and having it show up on the desktop computer as if it were connected via usb. There would be a ton of uses for this if it is possible. It would change your phone into a sort of wireless USB port.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Florentinoz:
there is software USB Network Gate with Win and Linux versions which probably could help you, but I don't know if it will work with Android...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nate3D:
I had run into USB Network Gate in my search for something similar for android. Seems like a great tool. If only it were able to run on android and was a bit cheaper.

Anyone know of something like this that will run on android?

My mother in law just received a Note 10.1 for her birthday. No matter what she does she cannot get Words With Friends to work. Anyone else have this problem? She's uninstalled, re-installed a half dozen times.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mke1973:
I don't play this game, but I've read about this problem on some other forums that I read. One suggested fix, was to sideload the app to the tablet rather than downloading the app to the tablet from Playstore (there seems to be an issue with the app running on tablets which can be averted by sideloading it).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsires522:
Words With Friends Freeze on Samsung Galaxy Notebook 10.1

what do you mean side load it ?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercuryStar:
It means instead of installing from the market, get the .apk file from somewhere else and load that instead, so you install it from a file not the market.

I would not recommend doing this, and can't see it helping you at all. You'll either get some dodgy version that I probably wouldn't trust, or you'll get exactly the same that's on the market. You also won't ever get updates for it from the market.

As for how to fix it, I have no idea. Words with friends works fine on my Note 10.1.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exaybachay01:
So I bit early last week on a N4 16gb when they first went available again, and since then it seems like the people who are receiving the last batch of the initial stock are posting reviews and Impressions of the device and aren't totally smitten. Whether it be rattling, the glass back, overheating, buzzing in earpiece and non-optimization of 4.2 it was scaring me a little.

What i was wondering, was which phones people felt were the best option for T-mobile. The keys i was taking into account were:

•strong processor (min. Dual core)

•decent to big battery

•high res. Screen (and at least 4.3")

•good video/gaming playback

•decent volume (doesn't feel tiny on headphones on high)

•should be semi safe with updates for next 2 years.

I am in the middle of a mobile contract with a Htc Radar 4g, and its just not enough for me and leave me wanting. So am looking for a phone that could potentially survive at least another 2 years. I was thinking of options like the note II, gsIII, HTC one international (w/ non-gba card), gnex. The only thing i will rule out is the iPhone because i have a PC, no offense to iPhone users.

So tell me your opinions and views.....if this thread should be moved elsewhere i allow the moderators to move it otlr let me know and let me know how to move it.

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bolillo:
I would say note II but then again im on att ^^
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Disastorm:
I think you should think about whether you actually care about these things.

Rattling - basically non-existant, you can't even hear it unless you litterally shake your phone right next to your ear repeatedly.

Glass Back - This is user preference

overheating - pretty sure this only occurs during benchmarking?

buzzing in earpiece - I dunno about this

non-optimization of 4.2 - i'm sure all phones are getting 4.2 eventually so this part might not even apply specifically to the Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukesleepwalker:
I've now lived with a 16gb N4 for about five days and I think it's the best phone on Tmo by a country mile.

Like you, I upgraded from an HTC Radar (actually liked that phone quite a bit), but I carefully tested all of the contenders currently available on Tmo and available unlocked. I opted for the N4 from Google Play.

I guess there may be a rattle but I honestly didn't notice it until I read about it (and I'm still not sure I hear it like some hear it). I've been shocked at how fast and buttery smooth Jelly Bean is. It really is awesome.

Hardware feels more elegant than other Android devices I've felt... Screen is beautiful and battery life has been fine for me (lasts a full day of moderate use).

I dunno. Maybe it's still honeymoon but I'm happy with it!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javacody:
I agree with the rest of them. N4 is the best, and I came from an International Galaxy SIII (i9300).

N4 had two updates in the first week I got it. Guess how many OFFICIAL updates my Galaxy SIII has had in 6 months? 1.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
N4 by far thanks to Tmo's 3G network, on ATT it is a little less desirable (~3Mbps download is downright average) but I would NEVER consider getting a phablet like the note and I prefer stock android to any skinned version.

I went from a One S to GSIII to a Nexus 4 and I love it. Not regretting the purchase at all and I will have this for the next 2 years no question.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [hfm]:
The n4 is all of those things you are asking for.

To address your gripes:

Rattling: it's the auto focus mechanism. Many phones do this, is meant to happen. You probably won't notice it unless you are looking for it.

Buzzing: I've heard about this, my phone doesn't have the issue.

Glass back: personal preference

Overheating: I have been playing games, no heat issues to report.

The only thing that has been happening, which was also happening on my GNex with 4.2 is a rare soft boot crash. The X pops up out of nowhere. I would imagine an ota will fix it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exaybachay01:
Glad to get home from work (posted this while on break) and to see that there have been several replies, and without any infighting at that. Good for this thread, pat yourselves on the back ladies and gents.

To follow up on a few things, I loved my Radar when I first got it, HTC makes excellent phones, and many people (not super high end phone people) were surprised by how nice the screen was, just dismayed by the side...the unfortunate drifting island that is windows 7.5 is what made me start looking for a replacement. As well as the ability to easily recoup the money that I would spend on an N4.

To those of those that touted how much they liked the N4, have you had any issues at all. I know some touched on not having the same issues that i mentioned. The yellow tinted screen is something else I have seen mentioned. Of those who have the phone how many are from THE 1ST BATCH of sales. Am curious to see if there is a chance that most of the problems were with the 1st batch, or possibly foreign made batches.

It looks like it is going to to be a good match, but still want to hear more and from people who haven't posted.

For those that came from the sIII, note or gnex, what do you like more about the N4 through your use already.....and any suggestion on cases?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svengalis:
Your in the Nexus 4 forum asking about the best phone for tmobile. I wander how this will play out...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenji7:
The only main issue that you need to debate if you can handle it with the nexus is the buzzing/ crackling noise from earpeice. Some say it's doesn't matter, because they can't hear it, but some phone have it worse then other. I have two nexus 4 here and one is not noticeable, while the other is quite loud. Also Yellowing spot on the phone when it gets warm which happen when you play game or watch a hd movie for a bit. The yellow spot is most likely a hardware issue, it's not the same as a yellow tint which you may also get.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exaybachay01:
I asked here for honest opinions, people who have the N4 and are getting replacements or are having to deal with the issues and stomach it would be open to stating if they love the phone or feel regret.

It seems from reading that you either get the the yellow spots or the yellow tint, if anyone is getting the yellow tint, is it consistent or off and on, and do you think they will call for a recall due to any of these issues?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugotproblemz:
Note 2 IS THE BEST at the moment in terms of specs

But N4 is still a good choice, more budget friendly AND it may lose in specs on paper, but it has yet to crash and is SILKY SMOOTH.

also not to bash on note 2, but my friend just got it and i had a few minutes to play with it....but after using pure android (came from sg2), note 2 felt VERY bloated and sometimes slow (note this is on stock)

BTW i have no issues with my phone, but other have said that you can always do a rma thru google. and ofc tmobile honors factory defects as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freshly_Snipes:
Stat wise? Note 2 is the best? (laughs hard and sharts in pants) Show me where the Note 2 is beating the Nexus 4 in stats. Please do. Screen size doesn't count wither there bud.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew149:
Note 2 has better camera front and back also has a micro sd slot also note 2 has the best battery life.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugotproblemz:
+1

Also although we(n4) have the same CPUs and GPU as the LG optimus G, when the Optimus G is compared with the note 2 they were basically a even match with the note 2 slightly ahead in some of the benchmarks. Now we know the optimus G is one hell of a phone and we should also too right? But with the currently thermal throttling/overheating, we arent even up to the optimus G level yet.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSF6zFc6pV0

i know benchmarks dont mean sh1t but same with specs looks good on paper but it doesnt reflect its daily usage.

That's why i said in terms of specs its better. i didnt say that its the best overall.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freshly_Snipes:
SD slot is a preference feature, not a winning Stat. Camera being better is subjective as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew149:
Lol install a few games on your 16gb and how about some pictures
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svengalis:
Well I am just saying. Most people are here because they think the N4 is the best. If you want real objective opinions might want to go to a general board.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exaybachay01:
I do appreciate your candor and helping, It was just like I initially stated thought, that I purchased the phone and am just in the holding pattern till they send it out, and as an "in the meantime" wanted to gauge the perception of those who have their N4's and are either extatic or are much maligned. Do they like another phone more, what is the jump like from the phone they had, and while there hasn't been 100 replies, for the most part the replies scratched that itch. Was even more positive since several of the first responders were ex-Radar owners themselves. The key more so to this thread was:

1. do you have t-mobile?

2. do you have an N4?

3. do you think the N4 is the best option currently for t-mobile?

Plus lots of people are on the N4 forums because they have one, many of the people have run into a plethora of items and are not nearly in the opinion that the phone is the best, in the least. But then again, as always YMMV
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javacody:
I'm on TMobile and love my N4. I have no issues other than a little creak in the bottom corner. No buzzing speaker. No overheating. No yellow screen or spots. Just dropped calls when I make ANY contact with the bottom of the phone.

Like I said, I had the Galaxy SIII International and prefer the stock android experience to Touchwiz. Tw has some great features but is bloated as hell.

I don't regret my purchase one bit.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ugotproblemz:
