[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wozn:
I'm using the EU JB homebake from matt and updated the radio to EU JB from HSD's tool on what was a GB retail phone. Anyway after a few hours it started locking up and rebootign after around 5-10 secs from starting up on the lock screen. I'll have to take note of the apps i have installed but the second time it wasn't many nor did i freeze many system apps. A wipe data/cache fixes the reboot loop but its a pain.

So question is has anyone else had reboot after loading issues? Have any ideas on how i go about isolating the problem app which isn't compatible with JB but was working fine on ICS. Is there a way to find a log of events causing lockup/reboot remembering i can't stay loaded for long. Could it be the EU Radio? can i flash back to GB ICS radio? hopefully i can get on top of it, I'm going to just load one app every few hours till i can track down the problem one if any.

Thanks for the Help....

One last thing, is there any reason to go over to GB retail once out from EU, is there a difference I'm in Australia and Eu looks completely bloat free.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wozn:
I will also mention that all i can see the phone doing about the time it locks up is that sync sim card thing it does when starting. I guess its a case of gettign to love SAFE mode lol

Hi everyone. I have two questions actually.

1.,

It was probably asked a million times but anyhow I have been trying to find the answer I can't find it.

If I do a nandroid backup from CWM, will it back up my EFS? Sorry if this question has been asked a lot but I want to know for sure.

2.,

If I am running rooted LL4 with Bullet kernel and LK8 modem (see attached screenshot), am I good to simply flash the Jedi Master 9 from CWM? I am very scared from bootloop since I have screwed up my LJ1 Note 2 about a month ago, lost my IMEI and EFS. If it is so, please somebody PM me with a really good instruction of what is supposed to be done once I am in CWM. If not, please explain me what has to be done in order to be able to flash that ROM.

Thank you all, any help is apreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] janosmolnar92:
Bump. Please somebody. It should be an easy to answer question. :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
There's a search engine that'll yield answers to both your questions.

With the above out of the way...

1. CWM doesn't backup the /efs partition, TWRP can.

However

you also need an NV items backup.

2. As long as the ROM you're trying to flash doesn't include a modem, you should be good to go.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I ordered a Nexus 4 today from the Play Store now that its finally back in stock. My 3GS died back at the end of December and I couldn't get the N4, so I picked up an S3 (ATT version) for $0 from Bell.

So my intention is to sell my S3 when my Nexus 4 arrives and I'll pretty much end up breaking even.

Anyways, shortly after buying it I started reading about a bunch of problems with the glass on the back cracking. Now I am somewhat worried. I read through a long thread where people shared their horror stories of the back cracking when falling 1-2 feet. Some people even described the back mysteriously cracking, potentially from sudden changes in temperature.

At the same time I also read posts where people said they've dropped the phone from 3-4 feet several times and the phone is still in perfect condition.

So is there actually a defect with the Nexus 4, or are people just over-exaggerating?

I don't really have any issues with the S3, I just thought that it would be a good idea to switch to the Nexus 4, seeing as I can sell my S3 for more than the N4 costs, but if there is actually a serious problem with the N4, then I will cancel my order and stick with the S3.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supersain08:
No problem here. Have been using it from the last ~30 days with no protection. Obviously it will shatter if you drop it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlehqls:
I've had mine since launch and no glass cracking.

I usually take the glass spontaneously cracking with a grain of salt, there are so many variables to take into account just come to a conclusion on its own.

Use a case and there won't be.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nba1341:
ive dropped a few times from my lap with a tpu case on no damage yet. Once launched off my lap pretty fast into a a thick metal table pole with no damage (Was scared though). Next from my lap getting up onto wood flooring.

I probably wouldn't risk using this phone without a case though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmunro:
I was thinking about getting the Rearth Ringke Slim. It's a really clean, slim looking case. I know it probably won't do a whole lot in absorbing shock, but it will at least prevent the back from getting all scratched

I've only ever dropped my phone once (my arm got caught on my headphones while running and my iPhone 3GS flew 10 feet onto the pavement). I'm very careful with my phone, I'm just making sure that the phone doesn't self destruct, or shatter upon the smallest impact.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juicyjones:
The word issue implies a flaw, which it is not. But it's made of glass so get a case or you'll be sorry because all glass can crask for any number of obvious reasons. It's a ridiculous pipe dream to imagine that we have the technology to make glass that won't ever crack from a three-foot fall. It just doesn't exist. We do however have the most durable glass that's ever existed or our phones wouldn't be nearly as cool. There's a reason Apple went to an aluminum back on the iPhone 5, though. LG probably should have done the same but they decided to risk it to make it look a little cooler than the average black brick.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegregulator:
Unfortunately I'm one of the people with a cracked back. It was in my pocket when it happened too. I wouldn't say it's a flaw, just damned unlucky. I would recommend buying a case, although it's a shame to cover the beautiful design of the phone.

The Ringke slim case is alright but I'd suggest looking into a Nillkin case. One of my buddy's has a Nillkin case with a textured back and it's awesome. Just a thought.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moses992:
Glass shatters when dropped, thats nothing new. Front glass or rear glass, both will shatter if dropped on a hard surface(depending on the point of impact and all that of course.. ).

However, you want to be careful with the back glass, it is not Gorilla glass(not scratch resistent), and will scratch easily without you even knowing how and when it happened.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Peter1856:
Yes there is a problem, it is beautiful and makes every other phone look boring :cool:

Other than that it is glass, what do you expect to happen when dropped/scratched? If there was a real problem there would be a lot more people coming here and post about it...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegregulator:
I've seen a fair number of posts concerning the backs cracking. Also keep in mind XDA is generally used by the die hards. The vast majority of Nexus 4 users (and I wish I knew approximately how many there were) wouldn't come to XDA to discuss their issues with the device. At first I thought all those tech websites glorified the back glass cracking on the device - now I'm fairly sure they didn't.

JB update: Did they change the path of the external memory card to /sdcard (rather than /external which resulted in many issues when trying to install large programs/games)?
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentaXx:
Yes, it's now storage/sdcard1.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashsam:
Does that mean you can now move apps to the external sd vs card?

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flex0r:

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrseife:
This is bad. sdcatd1 is different from sdcard and so most apps will have problems, I guess.
[RAZR i General] spangelsaregreat:
Folks,

If, like me the only downside of the Razr i is the lack of flash (without rooting etc) and not having access to Freeview channel apps like TV Catch up then check out mPlayer. It does streaming TV and works very smoothly on the Razr i.

dear all,

I'm a newbie here. hope to seek guidance and help from anybody here..

This problem keep annoying me now.. the story is like this..

I just bought this phone 2 weeks ago with the firmware version 6.1.A.2.45. Then after switching it on and hook to WiFi, I updated it to 6.1.A.2.50. After that I plug the phone to my laptop and update again to the latest 6.1.A.2.55 firmware. Remember this is all done without any 3G connection, only using wifi and my laptop. Wifi for my phone run smoothly with no problem..

After update everything, it reboot automatically as usual.. then after everything seems fine, I turn on my 3G... that time the problem came..

MY 3G/H is very unstable. About 5-10 minutes it will disconnected and connected again.. it repeat this process over and over again.. I cannot enter facebook or google store coz it always show "no connection" or "network error"..

this is really annoying.. is there anything to do with settings or firmware? do I have to downgrade my firmware to stock? or my phone is damaged?

Thanks in advance...

did you install the sdk and adb in linux? you might need to configure some things
[HTC Droid DNA] walther1337:
Here's what I did on 12.04:

sudo apt-get install adb && sudo apt-get install fastboot

This should install the proper programs. Open up a terminal and type 'adb devices' to see if your phone is there. Fastboot has to be run as root(sudo). No need for USB drivers on Linux.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Max_Pain:
Hey guys. Ive looked and there are a few threads but nothing seems conclusive as to what is the best choice for a car mount that will fit the note 2 and also work with the s3.

I want a strong suction and something that will hold the phones steady for use as a gps buy not block the screen and must allow for the car charger to be plugged in to the phone.

Need two so preferably something that won't break the bank.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Souai:
http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_..._Holder_for_Smart_Phones_PDA_GPS_Mobile_Phone

ive got one of these. it opens wide enough to hold my note 2 with my chunky heavy duty case. enough suction force to not wobble either. but only really seems to work on windscreens. wont work on the faux leather dash in my honda civic, but will work on plastic dashes.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] supyo:
I went with the iBolt xProDock for my Note 2. It fits the GS3 as well and works with cases. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1910428 or http://amzn.com/B00AOCSFYC

I love it. It is super easy to insert/remove the phone and it holds it very solidly. I've had it a month and I only suctioned it one time. It shows no signs of weakening. I think the price is definitely worth it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Max_Pain:
seems awfully expensive for something with 3.5/5 rating. I think I prefer the clip posted above. i'm going to try to find it locally if not i'll order online.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] microdave:
Got the mountek cd slot holder. Couldn't be happier. Doesn't block the road and looks almost like a 2din receiver. Oh super stable too. My old suction one would shake so much and it would be hard to reach while driving
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] frozen199:
I use the official Samsung Galaxy Universal Suction Car Mount Kit for Samsung Galaxy Phones available from Amazon US. I paid £22 for it delivered to the UK. Very solid, works well with my Galaxy Nexus, S2 and iPhone. Reviews suggest it does work with the Note 2 as well.

You will need to purchase a car charger though, but cannot fault it at all.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
I got the same car mount and reviewed it here with pictures:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37487154&postcount=49

The only difference, it was from ebay shipped for only $3.95. Took a little over a week to get here, and it's a fantastic car mount that will hold any phone.

Exomount 2!

I own a few of the Exomounts and one of their newest, the Exomount 2. It is easily the best I have tried as far as a universal type mount.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Shady Gambino:
http://www.arkon.com/Galaxy S III/megagrip-galaxy-s-3-sticky-dash-mount.html

My girlfriend uses this in her 2011 Scion with her GS3. It will also fit the Note 2 with most cases. If you have a giant Otterbox case, it'll be a tight fit. I like this mount because it sticks to the dash and can be adjusted to be around the level of an air vent mount. You can adjust it to different heights and even use it on the windshield.

Her Scion has a textured dash and it hasn't come off in 3 months. Good mount, imo.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Max_Pain:
thanks for the link. I guess I should have updated the post to mention I already ordered mine.

ended up going with a clip style holder, I like the design more and I want to use the phones horizontally, which the clip seemed to be sturdier at holding than this kind of mount.

let's hope its good!

Personally I the Breffo Spiderpod, I know its not a car mount but works a treat. just shape it to what you want. Mine uses the vents to hang on, been using it for 2 months now. My Note 2 has never come out, and I just slid it in and out even fits a treat with my flipcover.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChrisEmerson:
The Samsung i9300 official one works perfectly for me - fits my Note 2 with case, and is also sold as S3 compatible (and in fact I've tried mine with an S3 and works fine). Solid, has never fallen off my windscreen, and I'm just converting it at the moment to have a fixed power plug I can slot the phone on to, though that's probably not an option if you want to use the 2 phones with it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sshafranko:
I second the IBolt for Note2. I have been waiting for it to be released for months now and it is finally out. Although you have to wait for the charging cable until March.

It is built very very well, mounts to windshield, dashboard and has an optional permanent mount bracket also. My favorite part is the phone goes into Dock mode once attached. I have this mount for the GS3 and it is amaizing. Before purchasing it for the S3 i went through three seperate mounts from Best buy, returned them all. None of them came even remotely close to the quality of the IBolt mount.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChrisEmerson:
I was following this dock right up to the point where they said you had to connect the power cable yourself. I wanted a mount that I could slide the phone in onto a power connector, for one-handed operation. I'm now making my own :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] sshafranko:
I get what your saying, but i usually dock my phone when i get into my truck connect it and it stays there until i get out. I don't see any reason for plugging and unplugging it while driving unless i'm missing something?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChrisEmerson:
Me too, it's just the ease of doing this that I want. Slide in, slide out, no fumbling around for cables and getting the orientation and angle right and pushing it in properly... Much rather have a 1 handed operation that I can get in the car, place the phone in its dock, bring the sides in to grip it (easily all done with 1 hand), and have it activate car mode and start charging from the car at the same time. Equally, to get it out I just press a button on the back to release the grip, and pull the phone up - still all easily done with one hand. It's how I've had every other car dock as well. Sometimes when I get in the car I forget to put my phone in the dock, so it becomes even tricker - this makes it very easy.

Anyway, each to their own. I'll probably start a thread about the one I'm making at some point so other people can do the same thing if they want.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] kbanes:
I'm interested in your project. I was ruined by the excellent car dock that Motorola made for the Atrix. It was perfect.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChrisEmerson:
This is it so far... The plug is stable and solid, but I'm going to add some Araldite epoxy around the whole lot so it definitely won't move! I've avoided using it in the car so far so it doesn't break (not that I think it will) but have had the phone in and out several times now and it's very easy
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] KEYofR:
Dang we are all making our own. I just got done hacking the excellent HD2 dock from EVO 4G use to Note 2 use. Someone else did spmething similar before too, only they used a part of a protective case to form the holder. I went for the classic understated elegance of zip ties. :)

Once a long time ago I bought 2 nice hand made rosewood desktop cradles that fit the Palm Treo 650 from a guy who made up one small batch on treocentral. Now those were nice. I'd love it if someone would make nice wood cradles!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ChrisEmerson:
I didn't quite get yours... is there a bit that stays attached to the phone that allows you to clip it to the dock?

If someone would make a dock that is identical to the one I'm making, but with the usb plug adjustable in the up/down and forwards/backwards direction (and lockable once the right position is found), I think it would be the perfect dock for almost any smartphone of any size that has a USB plug in the centre at the bottom, accounting for almost any case as well. If only I was a good enough engineer and had the know-how to make and market something like that! I'm amazed something like it doesn't exist. You set the USB plug position for your phone, lock it in place, job done.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] KEYofR:
Just the usb plug itself on one end and the clip on the other end. There is nothing more to see. That's one of the beauties of that dock. So minimal. It holds great. It held an og evo for 2 years no problems (no zip ties then, the og evo fits in the original dock)

The way it stays on is tension. It doesn't matter that the zip ties are floppy. All they have to do is pull on that hook shaped part and the hook shape is what keeps the phone in. It's actually easier to use now than it was before.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Max_Pain:
Got my mounts in yesterday...and I cant say that im happy. It does not grip to the dash, so had to grip it to the windshield.

But thats not a big deal. However, the constant shaking while im driving is unacceptable to me...

Is the shaking a function of it being a cheap mount or a problem with windshield mounts in general?
