Hello my friend, now i read your tutorial and it was what i thought...

So i did exactaly what you told to do and the phone is still on the boot screem "Rethink Possible"..

Here is what i did:

-Download the PDA file from sammobile.com for skyrocket

-Start Odin

-Put that file on PDA diretory

-Put the phone in download mode

-It passed in Odin

-Hit start

-It restored normaly..

But now still in the boot screem "Rethink Possible"

What can i do?

Do you know how to get into recovery mode? Do a factory reset. Then reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Problem Solved, i have just restored it to the stock firmware via ODIN!

Thank you xda!

Thanks every one that helped me!

Now the last question, i do not like the samsung ics ROM!

Can i upgrade it to CM10 or do you think it will break my camera again?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Doors the camera work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
i tought the problem was gone, but when i took about 20 pictures and restart the camera, it crashes again!

i have already take out the external sd card and wipe the internal sd, it does not work either...

I am in the stock ics version that i restored via Odin...

Camera now just don't save any pictures, it freezes when saving the picture...

I really don't know what to do now!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
It works for a short time man, than it crashes again!

What should i do now?

I think i have tried every think i found in the internet...

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Your external sd is out of the phone? Is your internal full?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
My external is out, and my internal is empty, it has just the system on it, i have already wipe that!

i don't think that its a hardware problem, because some times the camera works...verry rare!

Some one help plz??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
What i did until now:

I cleared the cache of the camera app, I cleared the data app, I disabled and and re-enabled the app and I did the same with every app that was camera-related. I have re-installed Camera.apk from the root-explorer, i have restored it to stock ICS from Odin (I am still running stock now), i have format Internal memory, the sd card is not in the phone any more!

The camera still stop working...Some times it works normaly, that's because i don't think it is hardware problem...

Some ideas?

Should i send the phone to samsung?

Thank you verry much...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
To be honest, I'm not convinced you have the slightest idea of what you're doing. You say you're stock but you're using root functions. I don't think you wiped and restored correctly to begin with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
here is what i did about 5 times:

-Download the PDA file from sammobile.com for skyrocket: I727UCLF6_I727ATTLF6_I727UCLF6_HOME.tar

-Start Odin

-Put that file on PDA diretory

-Put the phone in download mode

-Connected the phone into computer, It passed in Odin: <ID:0/005> Added!!

-Hit start

-It restored normaly..

-I see an Samsung galaxy Sii with the stock ICS...

I don't have the CWM that i have installed previously...All stock man!

But i don't know if that actions delete root...

What do you think?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
You didn't perform any wipes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Yes i did, at the recovery...

-Wipe data / factory reset

-Wipe cache

I did this after restore via Odin to stock...

Every time i restore the system i can take about 20 pictures normaly, or open the camera app about 5 times, than it crashes again...

So i am convicted that it is not hardware problem...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
So you downloaded root explorer? Does it have root privileges? Do you have su still?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
No man, i re-installed Camera.apk from root-explorer when i was in the custom CM10 rom, now i am in the stock, i do not have root privileges any more...

I am not newbie at this point... i have a seriously problem here...

Not just me, there are hundreds on the forums speaking about that...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
lol hundreds where? anyway downgrade all the way back to GB 2.3.6 and see how that goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Ok i will try and when i do i will post here...

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Ok my friends, i am in GB now.

The camera seems to work now, i took about 200 photos and it failed just one time...It's verry good!

The problem is, i don't want to stay at GB firmware, it is verry old and a lot worst than ICS...

What should i do?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
When i posted this, i would open the camera again and it saids: "Camera failed", so i "clear data" and "force stop" in applications and it goes back to work, for just about more 50 pictures, than i crashes again....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Some one please help me!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
its been answered, if returning to stock and reformatting sdcard didnot resolve the prob, its hardware related, we cannot fix a hardware problem over the internet, since it can take pics but occasionally freezes, live with it or bring it to a repair shop, but imo not worth fixing since it works most of the time

edit: u can try one more thing to rule out internal sdcard issue, backup external sdcard, format it, use external to save pics, if it still crashes, then its a camera related failure, no easy fix imo as just replacing the camera will probably not fix the saving to sdcards as that seems to be the problem.

try a camera app from play could also resolve issue
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Thanks for helping man, but i have also tried that, i have format the external sd and have used it to save pics, but the problem still there..

The problem is exactly when saving pics, but when it crashes i can't open the camera anymore, just when i "clear data" that i can open camera app again, until it crashes and there we go...

I don't think it is a hardware issue because of that, when i "clear data" it comes back to work, until it crashes...

About the other camera apps, i have also tried a lot of apps from play, but doesn't work, same problem!

Verry boring problem, but i think i will have to live with it!

Thank you for helping!

Have you stopped/frozen the media scanner?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RK:
Can you please provide a logcat of when the camera fails??? The devs here may be able to figure out what the problem is from the log cat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] binhoscc:
Hello my Friend, i think you finally found where the problem is situated!

In my Skyrocket there is no Media Scanner, there is just Media Storage, so i disabled it and the camera works normaly, but it does not save pictures anymore, because the storage is disabled...

When i enabled it, the camera works for a while, but some times it breaks again when saving pictures, than i "Force to stop" the Media Storage and it come back to works...

Can i replace this Media Storage for another system app or something??

Thank you!

Hi guys! I just want to share this app, called Button Remapper. I saw this in a thread here in XDA a year ago and I can't seem to find the right thread so if anyone claims din message me.

Anyhows! I'll share this so you wouldnt tend to mess up your power button, not to press it every now and then, every time you lock and unlock your phone.

Well, it saves your power button. I use this app for that, replacing the function of the capacitive search button and make it act as a power button. It make me not to use the power button frequently and makes a perfect tandem for "wake up volume rockers" option found in any CM and AOKP. As long as you install the app, there are other buttons you can remap.

I've learned that stressing the power button my cause digitizer failure.

Afternoon all. After fighting to get the 3.14 OTA update on my phone (had to do 2.17 RUU, etc.) I have noticed today that my only options for ringtone volume is vibrate. It WILL NOT store any volume over 0 as a ringtone volume. All other volumes appear to work correctly (Media, In-Call, etc.) but the ringtone will only set to 0 and vibrate. Anyone else got this issue or know of a hack/patch/fix to correct this problem.

Phone is back to being rooted using CWM Recovery and CWM-SuperSU.zip process.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank in advance.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] augiem94:
Not to poke holes in your tutorial but the performance governer keeps your cpu at highest freq so your device may overheat and cause your cpu to burn out faster, also a swapfile may shprten the life of your sdcard, becuase of constant writes and reads, flash memory is not the same as RAM.

Every time I try to create an XML backup of anything (contacts, messages, etc.) it fails. It says at the bottom of the screen something like

"Failed to create file /storage/sdcard0/android/data/com.asdasd.titaniumbacup/files/download/232123-123.xml".

I don't remember the exact path but I browsed there and there wasn't a folder with that name so I created one and I still get the same message. This happens on every ROM that I have tried. Is anyone else having this problem with this phone? Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ArioK13:
Same problem here

I'm having the same issue when trying to backup but I have it on my external backup folder that I create. It backs up all my information except for wifi settings and bookmarks. The call logs and texting saves without an issue. I've tried everything to fix it without any luck, but if I figure I out, I'll post it here.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kmakiki:
Hey guys,

My father has purchased a Droid RAZR, and got it flashed via Houdini to Page Plus. However, he simply can not hold a 3G connection; all he ever gets is consistent 1X. Also, when he sends an SMS, the correct phone number (his phone number) is shown, but, whenever he sends an MMS, a completely different number is shown (the number on the SIM)...is this correct? Shouldn't the numbers be the same? Basically, it would be really nice to get the 3G working on this thing; my dad is super pumped about this phone, and would really like some decent data speeds. Thanks all!

I'm looking to root and flash JB onto a friend's Infuse. He's still on GB and has no idea about roms and stuff. So I need to pick a good stable rom with reasonable speed. I'm not sure whether 4.2.1 roms work well or if its safer to remain with 4.1.1 or 4.0.4 roms? Please suggest a rom for basic everyday use, not a power user. Thanks to the active community!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kenetix:
Good solid rom

I would say that Remics-jb would be an excellent start. The last beta comes with gapps built in. Get that here: http://d-h.st/f1Z

Make sure you do all the right stuff (Wipe data, cache, partition), then install. It is by far the most trouble free all-in-one I have used.

Thanks guys, after a lot of forum surfing I've found the following method: SuperOneClick Root-> e3 recovery -> CWM -> Now should I install an ICS rom and then go to a JB rom as suggested in the sticky?

I also saw

Method B:

1. Run this One-Click ICS Recovery

2. Boot into Download Mode, and Flash

3. Phone will hang; hold vol+, vol- & power, andrelease power when you see the samsung logo to enter recovery.

Once it boots into ICS, turn off and remove your external sdcard before you move on to flashing JB .
​

At which stage of the process does this happen? Have I understood it all right?

P.S. The phone is on stock GB.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kenetix:
Once you get it into download mode, you can flash the package here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1613523&highlight=odin+packages. Option D has everything. Let Odin finish and let your phone go through boot. It takes a while for Odin to program, and you will hear it "talk" to you while it is programming. Finish that, and do all the preliminary stuff (google account, etc...if you want), then reboot it in recovery mode (just hit the power off button and recovery boot will be an option). Go get an ICS rom, put it on your phone. I went through windows and made a folder called roms. Just plug phone in, and select the usb "on" button. It is a usb icon at top, swipe it down and you will see it. After that you can see it in My Computer. If you can't it means that you have no usb drivers. Look for them or install Samsung Kies. If you can see it, put that rom you downloaded into the folder you made or chose.In CWM (the red menu in GB, and blue in ICS and JB), choose Wipe data/factory, and then wipe cache partition, and then advanced-wipe dalvik. Then back at main menu, choose install from zip. Find your rom and then install it. Pay attention if the rom needs gapps. Remics has it built in. That is one reason I picked that one. Good Luck

what is best method ?/

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidoff59:
WiFi is best. You can do a test yourself, 3g will give you probably at least an hour less battery life if not more. This is my experience from using WiFi and 3g on a phone. That dongle may be quite thirsty too.

I have a little box which the dongle plugs into and creates a wireless hotspot. It's battery powered, lasts about 5 hours and is something I bought for use with my laptop.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexmealux:
Hello guys,

i'm new to the Galaxy Note and the Forum, start by thanking everyone for the great job you have done and are doing.

- Before:

I bought a Galaxy Note, I am fine and i love him like a son (maybe because I have no children).

There was the original version of Android 4.1.2 firmware N7000XXLSA with NO brand.

I flashed from the original recovery kernel that is here (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901191) to be precise "Philz-cwm6-XXLSA-DBT-v3.99" (I do not know why I chose this among others, perhaps because it reminded me of the original LSA final XXLSA and makes me wonder: the "Philz-cwm6-ZCLS8-CHN-v3.99" is newer than the one I flashed?).

From ClockworkModRecovery I installed, after fullwipe, the last Nightly of CyanogenMod 10.1 and the gapps (as I did on other phones like Nexus S and Nexus 7 and it is always gone smoothly).

- The problem:

Everything works fine (apart from a phenomenon of Battery Drain, but I have to recalibrate it and recharging from consuming it all off for at least 4 hours and then delete the stats etc ...), but there is one thing wrong: the monitor.

The icons on the desktop can be seen very well, ultra bright and the text looks really HD! (I come from Nexus S and I also have the Nexus 7, bright colors and blacks amazing!) But the background, some photos appear, or the shades of black phone menus you see badly.

If I use MXPlayer to see a video all blacks are pixelated, gradients are sheared.

As if it was in safe mode, type windows xp in safe mode that NOT loaded the video card drivers.

I read around on the issue and there was talk of color banding, 16bit software compared to 24bit monitors hardware, but in essence what?

Depends on the kernel?

I have to go in customer care to replace the monitor (which also occasionally changes almost imperceptibly color, for example while navigating, then on the white background of the pages, from white light turns yellow, then brown, and so on).

What do you recommend? Does anyone have or have had the same problem?

UPDATE:

This morning I tried the phone around, the street outside and the problem seems to disappear.

I set auto brightness. So maybe with strong light, increasing the brightness of the blacks are softened better.

Now I'm recovering from the last original software Samsung Kies, the much-hyped premium suite, see what happens and if the problem remains.

Thanks in advance to all.
[HTC One S] kallan:
Hello everyone,

So my screen cracked and my lcd slowly started dying and is now completely black. Touch still works as i am able too unlock the screen and i can hear random noises. Is there any way to retrieve the files of the phone? I can plug it in and the computer recognizes the phone, I just cant mount the SD card. I have all my lecture recordings for school on there! Please help.

if someone could show me with pictures or video how to enable the mass storage so i can enable it blind, that could work too.

Phone is UNROOTED

USB DEBUGGING IS OFF
[HTC One S] Darknites:
If you can't mount then you need debugging on to use adb to pull the files.
[HTC One S] kallan:
Thank you for the reply. Yes but can I turn on usb debugging remotely? i can not access the system settings and turn it on.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Hmm don't think it can. You could try and see if adb is working in the Bootloader.
[HTC One S] kallan:
how would i get to bootloader on the one s?
[HTC One S] TheCrow1372:
If you trust the 'Power of the Force' lol than just turn off phone completley than hold 'Power & Volume Down' and you should be on 'Fastboot' so just use the 'Volume Down' key and I am 98% sure it is the first option with the click of one down, not sure if this is helpful or just blah blah blah but (maybe) sorry?;)
[HTC One S] kallan:
While plugged in I held the power button and the soft keys on the bottom blinked 15 times and it went off. then i held "power and vol down" and nothing happened. Then phone vibrated and then the tmobile jingle sound. dont think im doing it right?
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
If the device boots and the touchscreen works, you can enable usb debugging blind:

- Unlock the device: Swipe up from the bottom

- Notifications: Swipe down from the top

- Settings: Tap on the far right side, between 0.5 and 1.5 cm from the top. (Directly underneath the status bar)

- Developer options: It's the 2nd option from the bottom, so first swipe up a few times to get to the bottom of the menu, then tap between 1 and 2 cm from the bottom.

- USB Debugging: It's the first option from the top, underneath the status bar and the menu title. Tap between 1.5 and 2.5 cm from the top.

- Now you have to confirm a dialog. The OK button is on the right side, about 4 cm from the bottom (or 2 cm below the center).
