[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xukinugo:
Just got a Tab 2 (P5110) for Christmas, and the light bleed is horrendous, going to be taking it back on the weekend, but was just wondering has anyone else had light bleed issues with theirs and should i be expecting to just hit light bleeding model after light bleeding model?

Lightbleed - Lightbleed max brightness on black background -- in person there are 3 LEDs up the top that stage light effect along the top border.. irritating when trying to watch a movie and such..
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingy1:
Hi all, hope anyone can help.

My phone was all rooted no problem after unlocking my bootloader etc.

I did the latest OTA update and it went through all fine. I saw I still had superuser on my razr i so didn't think much of it.

I came to use a particular app the other day and realised it wasn't working.

I rebooted my phone and noticed for the first time that the unlocked that appears under the motorola sign (when I unlocked the bootloader it started displaying) was now missing.

I tried to update the binary settings on the superuser and it kept on failing. Then I downloaded root checker and it said my phone was incorrectly rooted.

So couple of questions if I may:

1 - how do I go about properly rooting my phone again....has my bootloader re-locked?

2 - how do I scrap the whole thing and go back to stock i.e removing superuser completely.

Thank you all and Merry Xmas!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boriwei:
Hi,

everything you described is normal after an OTA update. The unlocked image at startup is replaced by the standard one but your bootloader stays unlocked. Root access gets lost after the update but you simply have to re-root it as you did the first time. (root exploit or root zip for cwm)

look here:

Nice one thanks for your help. If I want to un-root my phone - can you or anyone advise on how best to do it from where my phone stands now?
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pangyaaaaaa:
hey ;)

1. go to settings/apps/ and search the app superuser and deinstall updates (only if you had some,if not skip this)

2. use rootexplorer or another with same functions, go to System/Apps and delete the Superuser.apk

3. go to playstore and install the Superuser app(yes its right)

4.rootexplorer again, go to System/bin and delete SU

5. go to playstore and deinstall Superuser.. done ;)

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingy1:
Cheers but I won't be able to do this I think as superuser is a system file that I cannot remove without being fully rooted first so therefore I guess I will have to re-root it to unroot it lol.

i got HTC wildfire s, have completed the steps till CWM recovery, but cant get into the recovery window to install root.zip file, when i press recovery button the screen stuck at HTC logo. what could be the reason.thank you
[HTC Wildfire S] Lt.Win:
It may be that you have a 2012 Wildfire S (i.e. you bought it in 2012). If that's the case, you need a modified recovery, which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1997465.

Flash it the same way you did for this, and flash the root.zip.

I found some tutorials on the web of how to create an infrared remote control by using a headphone 3.5 mm jack and 2 IR leds... You basically have to connect the leds to the 3.5 mm plug... And connect them with reverse polarity. I cant get this to work on my Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Tab 10.1, my friend's Galaxy S2 and another friend's iPhone 4.....if anyone manage to get something similar to work, please tell me what you did.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Amarto12345:
Hi, This is my first post. Been using XDA for a loong time now but decided to sign up :P I have a problem after installing Toldo's Jelly Bean Rom ICS. I installed V7 and then installed A1 kernel as the JB ICS thread said that you have to or the WiFi won't work. So I did. Then after I booted up, My WiFi connected but I couldn't access the Internet and I can't connect to my computer to install a new rom. What do I do? I have already Factory reset, Reinstalled Kies, Tried a different usb port, restarted Computer, and some more things i cant remember. I already searched the internet but couldn't find a solution. Please help. Thanks. I would really appreciate it :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] wonderer2:
U didn't tell if rom was working otherwise, is it only wifi-connection issue. So maybe there's nothing wrong with the rom installation, did u make full wipe and from which rom did You come from? Is Your tab p7500 or 7510. If p 7500, does 3g work? Maybe u have to set the wifi-settings again with new rom.

Have You the right USB settings, there U should have MTP (media device) selected (settings/storage, upper right corner three dots and there MTP selected). So with this information there are more questions than answers...

:confused: I think u should reflash the rom with full wipe and if it's still not working properly then there is something wrong with the settings of Your tab. With Kies You cannot do anything useful if You are not using stock rom. Use Odin 1.85 instead to install roms.

P. S. I don't have an english version so hope the terms were right....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] arashtarafar:
If the above solutions don't work (I believe they do), try flashing a stock ROM using Odin... we can help you getting it to work in case you don't know how;)

If it's anything like a picture frame stand then yes it should be able to. I assume all these kickstand cases are made primarily for landscape so it should work. The case looks a bit too thick for my taste.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I hope so. I have the nillkin case for my sensation that looks almost exactly like it. For kicks (pardon the pun) I pulled it out to see if that ever did landscape and the case itself does not. It tipped over in landscape. Maybe the phone uses it's own corner to prop it up as well?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] OoTLink:
Second time I've noticed this coming upstairs with my phone in my pocket, when I got up, I went to turn the phone off, unlocked the screen and "pfftpt"

then I turn it off, and instead of the jingle I get another "pfpft"

Strange, because the exact same thing happened to me yesterday. Could it have been the new firmware update? Anyone else experience something like that? Seems pretty crazy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] OoTLink:
So this time, I went to use my phone and when I woke it, the rear speaker started making white noise, much like a stereo when you don't get any signal.

Instead of doing much, I tried messing with the sounds and nothing really happened - attempting to play music just caused it to semi-freeze, but I could still get around it. So I let it sit some more, and then the phone started making really loud funky noises.

So I pulled the battery and restarted it. Now the sound is working fine. I think I'm going to try reinstalling from scratch. Currently everything is stock firmware and the latest update to get multiwindow.

I have been llooking for answers as to how to do this yet I have not found a good site that explains it well. I just picked up a SERIES 8 Samsung TV..and I want to connect my s3 to it to view pics or what not.

Anyone have any experience doing this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jswclw:
I have a Samsung smart tv and a galaxy s3. The tv is wired into the network. I recall that I have done anything rose to make it work, but out digits. From the gallery, music player, or movie viewer I can send what ever it is to the tv. Of course the s3 is using WiFi in the same network.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ErebusRaze:
I have a Samsung Smart TV, a Samsung Laptop and obviously the GS3. I have the Allshare application on my PC which prompts you to share the path folder which holds your movies, photos, etc. On GS3 it does the same thing, but you have to be on the stock framework (rooted is fine but not ROM'd)... On your network your phone should recognize your TV as it has a pre-designated name given to it, and it will ask you if you want to share information with the device (TV). If the TV is hardwired it then it may not work. As of right now if I have everything over WiFi then there is no issue. Once I hardwire the TV then Allshare doesn't recognize my TV anymore from my PC or GS3.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wind1084:
I want to connect my note 2 to my car stereo via HDMI so I bought a cheap MHL cable for galaxy S3 assuming it works on note 2 as well.

The main purpose of doing this is to see the navigation on the car stereo screen so I don't need to attach my phone on the windscreen. However, every time I connect the MHL cable the phone loses GPS signal immediately. I have tried it at home on my TV, same problem. So does anyone have a genuine adapter from samsung can help me to test if you can get GPS signal with it connected to your TV via HDMI? If it works, I may buy a "real" samsung adapter and through that cable to the trash.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benofishal:
Same with S3

I have exactly the same issue with an S3 - cheapo ebay MHL, as soon as I plug in GPS signal definately drops.

My cable has a standard USB plug for power, and an HDMI plug for the screen and a micro-usb for the phone. To start with I plugged the USB power end into my cheapo £0.99 USB cigaratte adapter from china. Instantly the GPS signal disappeared completely.

I have today replaced the cheap power supply with a more expensive Gifford PowerBolt cigarette USB adapter and now I get more signal, but there is definately still a drop. For instance the phone on its own will Navigate when located near my gear stick, but will not get a signal when plugged into MHL in this location, but I can navigate successfully with the phone on the dash under the windscreen with the new power supply.

I'm wondering if this supply is somewhat better than the crap from China but still too dirty.

Does anyone have any recommendations of an adapter that will give a pure power supply.

The other issue I am having here is that although my power supply can output 1 AMP which should be sufficient to support MHL, GPS, Bluetooth etc and charge the battery, the phone is not detecting this supply as AC so only using 500MA from the supply, meaning the battery drains and eventually runs out on a long journey.

I know this is due to the middle two pins on the USB side of the micro USB on the phone not being shorted, thus telling the phone it's connected to AC and to draw the higher current, my MHL cable clearly does not have these pins connected.

Does anyone know of an MHL adapter/Dock/Cable that has full USB connectivity and MHL connectivity?

Hope this sheds some light, hopefully we can get some suggestions on good quality power sources to cure the interference and a good MHL adapter with every pin connected to the phone to allow for AC power mode with MHL.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wind1084:
We must be using the same product. My one comes in red cable. Actually, I really like the design cos one single cable solves all issue: charge+HDMI. If I use the genuine Samsung adapter, I have to connect both HDMI cable and USB charging cable.Now I use the aluminum foil from my kitchen to wrap all three ends of the cable and it makes the GPS signal a little bit better. I have ordered some ferrite core clips from eBay hope this can solve the problem.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benofishal:
Stupid GPS!!

Any update on this from your end? Did the ferrite core clips work? I have found some more info that this could be caused by the fact the HDMI do signal is grounded to the external lcd display, which in turn is grounded to the cars chassis (either through wires in a harness or directly) and then the phone is also grounded to the power side of things, and because both are grounded to different points on the car this creates ground potential difference. I don't really know too much about this but am told that this will almost definitely interfere with the signal. I have been advised to ensure the lcd display and the power cigarette adapter are grounded to the same point on the car. So I have hooked up a cigarette lighter socket behind my LCD and then grounded both the LCD power and the cigarette socket to the car radio harness at the same point then plugged in the power adapter into this new socket, unfortunately this has not made a difference. The next step I am advised is to ground them directly to the car chassis to achieve a better ground connection.

The problem still could remain due to the fact the circuitry in the in the lcd may cause resistance and cause ground potential difference regardless of both the phone power and the lcd power being grounded to the same point on the car.

I am wondering if connecting the ground of the hdmi port on the lcd directly to the chassis whether this may help?

Do you understand any of this? Does it make sense. Doing my head in!!!

If your ferrite cores helped let me know or if you have found a better MHL adapter that would also be good!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wind1084:
No, unfortunately the ferrite core clips don't work. I cannot find any better solution than the aluminium foil wrap now.
