I should have more storage space than I do. Is my sd card being doubled with the sdcard0 thing that happens when flashing ROMs?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] llanero75:
I don't think so. you should always wipe the whole system before flashing a new Rom. Also if you have a lot of nandroids stored, that takes away a lot of space. I recommend do a full wipe, format system and then flash your new Rom just to make sure all of the old Rom its gone:good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Monkeymannnn:
Gotcha. Forgot about the nandroid I'd made. That would explain the space issue. Thanks for the response.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
Install "disk usage" from the market. It will analyze your storage usage and show you what is using your storage.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Monkeymannnn:
Here's a screenshot of what disk usage found. Seems to me like my media was doubled, but I could be wrong. Any idea?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
It's not doubled, you just have +4GB in your music folder and +2GB worth of CWM backups.

My phone was bought new with 4.0.4 ics (I9100BVLPE) rom version and it seems to be pretty laggy for a dual core proccesor. Last year i was the owner of an I9000 and it seems to be faster. Can any1 recommand me a better stock rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
How many apps have you installed?

Just so we're clear, you know about 4.0.4 & brick bug, right? if not, here's some reading material.

If you want a stock rom you can either go 4.0.3 unbranded (look for) or jb leak.

And ain't nothing faster than I9100 :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jomari29:
"pretty laggy for a dual core proccesor"?

Just your device maybe....

its not the cores... its the CPU,

S2's Exynos 4210 is pretty much equal or abit less than Tegra 3.

Tegra 3 is quad core...

So your problem, is software related...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Didn't know that, neither this guy:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
guys... i will try today to install another stock rom. So... it's worth trying to install 4.0.3( I9100XXLPQ) open europe- Poland? and no, i didnt knew about the brick bug.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Good thing we ruled that out then. Tried got brickbug app from play store?

Now please, before flashing, do a little bit of reading. We really don't wanna see you posting that you're bricked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
I installed the brickbug app and at Brick bug it appears "No. Sane chip" so can i flash the new stock or i'm exposed to brick my phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Don't worry, you're safe :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
oh. Thank you . But can you explain me a bit what's the meaning of sane chip?.. or why i'm not exposed if im trying to flash 4.0.3 from open europe-Poland( it is good?) ??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobraboy85:
4010 exynos is nothing compared to the 4012 quad. Play GoldenEye for n64 on your s II - rude awakening to that reality. I've owned both.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
it is a rom ? if yes i already said that i want smth stock :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Didn't you read this? Anyways, don't worry, you're off the hook.

For ROMs:

click here for Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs (

unbranded

is recommended)

click here for Jelly Bean Leak.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
Gastonw, sorry because im asking again but the open europe roms are an unbranded rom right ? and i found a rom from samfirmware in open europe-Poland, the version is 4.0.3. It is good ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Lol, I dunno about that ROM, didn't you check the links I posted?

And yes, 4.0.3 & 4.0.4 are good (

because you have a Sane chip,

if it was faulty 4.0.4 would be out of the question).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
oke. I will try to flash it. One more question : should i wipe the phone ? How about the warranty?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
err......flashing voids warranty.

Why don't you just read a little bit more about all this flashing thing before you actually flash?

Are you even rooted? that would be a good start for you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clauddr:
omg. I heard that flashing a stock rom from samsung will not void the warranty.

I read a lot but there are different points of view and becausd of that i asked here.

p.s: my phone isn't rooted. it's like new :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Here's the thing,

You can do whatever you want with your device, Warranty says "don't do anything or I won't cover it".

You say "F you" and start flashing.

Something up, something funny, odd with your device. You flash a stock ROM, all clean, no root no nothing and say "here, fix it, haven't even touched it".

Here's the catch:

Branded & Unbranded.

If you are on a carrier contract, you should download the carrier ROM, let say...just in case something actually happens.

If you bought it unlocked and unbranded, it's all samsung. Download any stock, unbranded ROM and you are good to go.

Warranty is voided only if warranty can PROVE you voided it. If not, it's on them.

p.s: i just flashed a 4.0.3 version and i've got 4000 points on quadrant.

p.s: i still have the touch screen problem, but tomorrow i will remove my screen protection to see the difference and i will come with a feedback.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kuchl:
Hi,

i got a Big Problem today.

First some information about what i have done with my Tf300T.

I buyed my Tablet 3 weeks ago

2 weeks ago i flashed the CleanRom3.1. The same as in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2049322

All works fine but since 2 days my tablet restarts automatically and than comes a message like: "The Touch-Screen-Software is updating. Please wait..." than it goes from 0% to 62% and than it will wait a little bit and jump back to 0%. The next message:"Please restart your device to update the Touch-Screen-Software again."

I restart and then i was in the homescreen of my tablet. All works fine again.

But today it was the same "updating>0%-62%-0%>restart" but now the tablet will update again and again and i always have to restart. Always the same message:"Please restart your device to update the Touch-Screen-Software again."

I dont have a chance to come in the normal Homescreen. So i restarted, started recovery, made factory-reset and flashed the JB@OverclockV01 and than JB@OverclockV02 like here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901784

Wipe Cache, dalvik cache and restart.

When i comes in the First Screen where i can change my language and press the "Play" button, i noticed that my Touchscreen doesnt work.

I restarted and got the same Problem.

I thought somethink was wrong with the Flash so i made factory-reset again and flashed the CLEANROM3.1 again like in the Link above.

At this Rom there is a kind of Installation manager with you can touch "Next" button for example and already here i got the same problem that my touch doesnt work.

So i think theres a kind of software Problem because my tablet was all the 3 weeks on the pc-table at home. i did not use it outside or something. the hardware cant be broken of my bad handling.

And also this problem appeared today as i stopped the "loop-restart for touch-screen update".

Does anyone know the problem or can help me? Can i get the Touch-screen software to download it and install it in recovery or over Computer?

Like my HTC mobile phone has a HTC-Sense touch screen software so i think the Asus tablet has a special Touchscreen software too?

Please help me.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leonclement:
Hi there,

Has anyone else had this issue, this seems to happen every 2-3 days, when i wake my phone up the screen looks really bright (and washed out) the phone itself works perfectly while the screen is like this, i have tried changing the screen brightness/auto brightness/screen mode etc but it dosnt fix it, the only way is to reboot, at the moment i am on Omega V37 (ELLC) but this has been happening for approx 3 weeks now (on all different omega versions) i have tried a full wipe and load ELLC via PC odin, then install omega again but still this problem occurs, any ideas?

Solution or at least step one in the logic sequence is wipe phone and factory reset and test .

Sorry for the delayed update, I'm on vacation in Mexico :).

BTW this is my second S3 maybe next time I'll get an iPhone. This s*cks! :(
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xperiaforme:
I would really prefere it if impact cases had real screen covers. I think that if you drop the phone so that the screen hits a rock or corner, Otterbox won't help at all. What do you guys think, is this it as far as impacts and drops go or are there better options?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
If the screen lands on a rock you might be out of luck. There is supposedly screen protectors that help resist shattering. Do they work? Maybe. Nothing is going to be completely shatterproof though. far as overall protection otter is one of the best if not the best as far as I can see. If there are bombproof cases out there someone chime in, but I havent seen any. Usually phones dont land flat on the ground though so most of the time you should be good unless you're super unlucky. Ive seen people drop the note 2 screen down with the defender and it didnt break. The lip on the edges of the screen on the case took all the impact.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] xperiaforme:
Thanks for a bit of reassurance, I guess when not in use, if I put holster on so that the screen is inward, it helps a bit too?? I didn't see this feature up untill now.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mark112089:
You got it! Use the holster if u need extreme protection. Yea phones arent like cats lol usually they dont land flat. Its already vertical if u are using or holding it too. Holster acts as a stand too

After i charge my RAZR

turned off

to 100%, If I take the adapter out of the socket, but do not turn on the phone, it uses battery. I take out the charger from it at 100% and after a 8h night sleep, the phone reached 50% TURNED OFF!

if i turned it on, then the battery drain is normal.

After reaching from 100% to 50% turned off, the battery drain issue in menu appeared to be SCREEN 23% and PHONE IDLE 23%.

stock ROM.

any help?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bogdan_wrc:
i dont think its the battery to blame. if i start the phone immediately after charging , the battery is ok.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dandroid2010:
Try restart the phone after full charging, once it is unplugged.

Installing CPU Spy might help too in monitoring if your phone is getting into deep sleep or if something is draining your battery.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bogdan_wrc:
i know the solution, i was looking for the battery drain CAUSE :)

the battery drains is only during the time the phone is closed. completely closed. i doubt that there is a CPU spy who works when the operating system is closed. the phone is at service right now...for another week or so.

AW: GSM RAZR battery strange issue

You're not the only user with this issue. An User here in Germany got it, too.

When he power off his Phone it still drains battery. For him it's better to put it into sleep mode instead of turning it off.

Strange things goin on :eek:

Sent from my XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bogdan_wrc:
i will post here the info from the warranty bulletin, perhaps it will help him too.

the fact is that i have misplaced my warranty certificate, and i had to send the phone to the company from where i have bought it. and i dont know if they will send it to the authorized dealer or not.

the fact is that it consumed battery only if i took it out from charger closed. if i used the phone normally, and turn it off during the night, the battery usage was 0 during the time it was off.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bogdan_wrc:

THIS HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY ME, AND JOKERSAX HAS TOLD ME ABOUT TWO OTHER DEVS WHO HAVE HAD SIMILAR RESULTS

This is a public service announcement saying that if you leave recovery (I left TWRP on overnight while restoring a nandroid) on too long, under certain circumstances not yet completely determined may lead your device to a hard brick. This has happened to 3 people so far, and want to avoid anymore issues with this.​

For more details on what happened I was flashing a V5 test build of my rom im working on adding aroma too where I got another syntax error to fix. It was about 11:30 at night, so I just started restoring from a nandroid, threw the phone upside down, and knocked out. When I woke up the next morning I checked the device and it was off in recharge mode- nothing too big. I then tried to boot and it ended up flashing the notification light and softkeys repeatedly, and did nothing else. I was able to get it into download mode, but LGNPST kept timing out. Then after trying several times with it timing out it wouldnt get into download mode. I then tried to just get anything to light up, and left it on the charger for several hours, and then gave up that my device was hard bricked. No data remained. I had to go to best buy and wait about an hour and a half for them to get me a new device. I hope everyone can avoid this happening to their device. It is a slow, but sure death reported by a few people.​

My phone also gets really got while in recovery mine also overheated exactly like the OP but mine came back to life I left it alone for a few hours then put it on the charger and finally got into download mode then recovery and restore.

Only thing that could heat up the phone like that is the cpu core running at max.or spiking to max very very rapidly. Basically the soc with all the chipsests are not going into a sleep mode. I can see why all the data was gone and or damaged. I've seen something like this with other electronics.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] evodev:
I have not left recovery on long enough to experience noticeable overheating myself. I wish I knew how to fix the recovery myself though. Also as for making this a sticky (I read half the posts through email, and might have got this thread mixed up) mods are kinda inactive, so it will be hard for us to do.
