[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] os2baba:
Found a couple of options after googling. I had tried earlier, but "logcat across reboots" was a better search phrase.

Anyway, I can hook up my phone to the PC and run

adb -d logcat > mylogfile.txt

which should save a log file to my PC and when I'm not near a PC, I can use something like alogrec which saves logcat files to an SD card

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogrec

Another option is to use adb bugreport

http://developer.sonymobile.com/2012/01/25/new-bugreport-analysis-tool-released-as-open-source/

Hopefully it will provide a useful clue.

If not....you can always make a Nandroid, reset your phone, and then restore.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
You can use terminal emulator from your phone and dump a logcat to sd as a .txt if you search around you'll find the proper command which I can't remember at the moment but its something like

Su > enter

Logcat -d /sdcard/filename.txt

Filename being whatever you choose

Use water to clean my phone (yes im very stupid) and then i turned up the volume and the speaker is very tinny. what should i do?:crying::crying:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon1357:
try take it apart and put it in rice
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] barrackOBAMA:
So your only problem is a broken main external speaker?

I'd take off back cover and battery and place in rice for a good day or so.

If that doesn't work. Don't panic.

The speaker is very cheap and very easy to replace.

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=160890063224

Pm me if you need any further help or information on the speaker ;)

(If more is damaged, check water marks to see if they are indicating water or not. If not. Have sent to Samsung under insurance.)

Hit that thanks if I pointed you in he right direction.

the rice method works pretty good, also if you can get the silicon bags that come with electronics, those work well too to draw in moisture

I did not flash my phone before, I was using samsung original ICS rom all these while until 2 days ago I decided to flash it with cyanogen nightly build cm-10.1-20130123-NIGHTLY-n7000.zip. I used CWM.zip(I think is a touch version) recovery to update my phone. I did not do a backup. My phone managed to show the cyanogen logo after that with a turning wheel but it just stuck there for 10min. I then realized I have to clear /data, /cache, and the dalvik cache. did so in recovery mode, but now it no longer showing the turning wheel, instead just stuck at the samsung n7000 text logo screen.

I then used odin to flash the phone with a malaysian original rom I downloaded from the hotfile.com (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997). Now it fall into a restart cycle, still stuck at the samsung text logo screen, just that it restart after around 20sec. I then boot into recovery mode(This time I'm using recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-n7000.zip) and clear /data, /cache, and the dalvik cache, but no avail.

I dont think I bricked it yet since I still manage to go in to the download mode and recovery mode. but no matter what I flash it always stuck at the samsung n7000 text logo screen. Can someone further guide me what should I do? Thanks. (I'm very calm btw)

Bootloops will occur if you do not wipe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choongyouqi:
I wiped for the earlier flash, not the current. but both are the exact same rom.

Anyway, I just did a wipe cache, then select wipe data/factory reset, and reboot the phone again.

Still the same. stuck for 6min and reboot.

I understand usually full wipe/first boot we have to wait longer for the booting, but am I suppose to wait at the N7000 screen for few minutes or there is another screen to wait?(perhaps the boot animation screen with colorful samsung logo)

Another question is, is wipe data/factory reset consist of wipe cache? (if that so probably I dont need to do twice everytime)

Thanks.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaiDai:
First you should get into a "well-defined condition":

Download a Stock Rom (like GB LC1 with 3 parts) and try to install this with PC Odin:

- If it stucks at "factorifs.imb" then it is a very strong indicator for a bricked device.

- If the GB Rom is installed without problems then you can switch to Custom Roms from there.

Hi ThaiDai, I tried to flash with PCOdin quite a numerous of times with stock roms (range from GB to ICS) and I have never stuck at any place before. I'm not sure with the 3 parts definition but I guess my .tar.md5 come with this 3 parts:

I always start with an ICS ROM when I go custom, is not that I don't want to start with a GB Rom but the recovery mode come with stock doesn't allow me to choose my SD card. and moreover, stock GB and ICS both with clean flash/format cache partition/ wipe data/factory reset all stuck at the nt7000 logo and can't proceed further.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jra219:
I did some research and didn't find a problem similar to mine.

I have a Samsung Galaxy SII Skyrocket that's 1 year, 1 week old today (so out of the warranty period).

I rooted it, have nova launcher, cwrm, and am running stock ICS on AT&T.

Earlier today, I noticed that I no longer had service which then went to No sim card inserted. I thought maybe it had gotten dislodged but that was not the case. I tried a factory reset and then a restore using crrm to a earlier date and still the same error. Even after the factory reset it had no sim card as the error.

My next step was okay my sim card is corrupt or something. Went to the AT&T store and got a brand new one and it still had the same error. this led me to believe it might be a hardware problem. I think I ruled out the kernel and the modem not communicating correctly because i'm not running any roms (nor have I ever on this phone) as well as tried to factory wipe and tried to put a fresh ICS stock via kies.

Any ideas as to why my phone still says no sim card? the sim card works as i'm using my old LGcu920 at the time of writing this with no problems. thanks in advance for any help.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] tweetatoo:
Hello guys, how are you doing?

I just wanted to share with you my own opinion over how Samsung deals with updates to a Galaxy Note 10.1.

Actually, many users have reported software bugs in Galaxy Note 10.1 and Samsung confirmed many like the bug of clipboard. But the bad part is Samsung ignorance of bug fixing. It is good that we will receive 4.1.2 update with premium suite preinstalled, but it is bad that we did not receive a bug fixing package!

It has been several months since the launch of the Note 10.1 that many owners of the product started to get frustrated of the bugs. I cannot copy an article and save it as note in S Note app or share it in Facebook!

Besides, Samsung released JB 4.1.1 update to some regions, stopped then started releasing 4.1.2 in the time users still have the buggy 4.0.4 for many months in several countries, if not most! Even though 4.1.1 has stability issues, Samsung shall fix current bugs of 4.0.4 before caring to release a major 4.1.2, as this needs a quite long time by Samsung for a frustrating bug to remain!

Software is as important as hardware. I do not care for receiving a new major update with hundreds of new features, as we will receive it soon or later! But for me, a stable software with only two features is far far better than a buggy one with hundreds of cool features that I am unable to use!

Samsung used to release improvement packages and push them to their software update server for their products, but it is really strange why this is not the case for Note 10.1!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] legion1911:
You write that you are still on N8000XXLGA.

Sorry man, but it is your fault if you chose not to update by flashing the newest firmware.

Thanks to Samsung, Samfirmware and XDA, you have this option.

Other big companies, for example Acer, LG, will not even give you this.

So why do you not update?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skadebo:
Agreed, I had to resort to manually flashing the German JB update to "fix" the PDF import problem on my Canadian N8010. I feel sorry for the average customer that bought the Note but doesn't know how (or even think) to flash a firmware.

This is why Samsung will remain a second-rate manufacturer of mobile devices: ineffective software QA and silly update rollout schedules.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mke1973:
The note isn't my first Android tablet, but it is the best that I've owned to date. My first Android tablet was an Archos 101. In addition to poor quality control that led to dead USB ports and speakers on multiple units while under warranty, the company's constant push of half-backed updates drove me and others away from that brand. You need to test code changes to make sure one "fix" doesn't break something else. Archos engineers didn't test updates thoroughly and rushed out updates that created additional issues. I quit updating that tablet. Thank goodness Samsung is more diligent. No OS is perfect and some of the things we might be unhappy with really are deliberate design features that Google incorporated into JB (or, in your case ICS). I would also suggest that you update to JB, you'll gain valuable features with the s-pen. At this point in time, I am happy with stock JB. I will probably root it soon (I wanted to use it on stock JB for a while before rooting). Eventually, I may flash one of the custom ROMs developed by the talented developers on this forum. The great thing about the popularity of Samsung products is that the popularity generates more developer interest, a big win for adventurous owners willing to root and flash.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skadebo:
Having to do all that is, to me, what is required from buying a second or third-rate product. I wouldn't buy a car, for example, and be happy to expect that I need to change the spark plugs or some nonsense when I bring it home.
