[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RowanDDR:
My friend dropped his Galaxy S in the toilet a few months ago. Gross and lol. :)

It now hangs on boot at the Galaxy S logo splash screen (see photo below).

It is possible to get the phone into download mode, using the 3 button combo. From there, today I flashed it using Odin (with Gingerbread) - although Odin reported that the phone flashed OK, it made no difference and still won't boot past the splash screen.

As you can see from the photo the screen seems to have a perminant red tinge.

Any suggestions guys? Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: After taking it apart, and putting it back together, the red screen problem is gone. But, it still won't boot past the first screen.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkruijff:
Hi,

the EXACT same thing happened to me last sunday. I grabbed the phone immediately from the water (eww), took out the battery, the SIM and the SD-card. Then i opened the phone (hard), and let it dry in some rice for three hours. The rice absorbs the liquid. after that i put it back together. Tried to start it, but it wouldn't boot. So i put the charger on it, then it did boot. Some glitches when touching the icons and sliding the screens, but it worked! The next day i telephoned my wife, she wasn't home, so i hung up. Then the phone hung. I rebooted it, and it became terribly slow (it took about 15 minutes to get to the Samsung boot animation). I turned it off again, and after that it wouldn't boot past the start-up screen anymore, just like your friends'. Also, the screen did not turn off anymore. So i gave up, turned it off, and started setting my mind on a new phone. It was late, so I went to sleep. I turned it on the next day just to see, and it booted again! It has been working fine eversince. So maybe your friend could try to take out the SIM, and SD-card, and turn off the phone for a while. You never know.

Good luck anyway!

J.

Hey guys,

I have a rooted stock rom on my LTE. I just got a notification for an update over the air. Is it safe to take it? I'd like to keep root.

Sorry if this is nooby.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
No. You risk losing root (and other issues, as well). Find a stock rooted ROM of the newest version and flash it, instead. Never accept an OTA if you're rooted.

[Windows 8 General] tommypro:
Hi All, I recently acquired a Samsung Ativ Smart Pc 500t. So far so good. One problem I have is that in desktop mode, many apps have input fields but the Windows 8 keyboard does not automatically launch for most desktop apps (unless there is a setting I do not know about....) I auto hide my taskbar to have more screen real estate, so I have to do multiple jesters to get the keyboard on the screen. I created a simple button program that has 2 buttons, one for the OSK.EXE and one for the new windows 8 keyboard. It's not pretty, but it works. The source code and the executable are in the attachment, so you can build it if you don't want to run the executable. Hope this helps you! I am looking for a way to do this same thing by adding buttons to the title bar, so this will come when I figure out how to do this. Enjoy!

Ok, so this game (Mass effect infiltrators) comes preinstalled on stock HOX+ Roms for free. I decided to flash ViperXL+, and was wondering if it was still legal to post/find a Download link for this app on xda?

[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
You can pull the .apk from a stock rom and install it on a custom one. But posting a link to the .apk would be illegal.
[HTC One X+] dantegl36:
I believe what is factory installed is only a demo. For me, I was prompted to purchase the full version. I could be mistaken on this though. But if I am correct then with out a doubt posting the full version anywhere would be illegal.

[HTC One X+] NoobDude:
It is a full version on my ATT onex+. To the OP, i'm no pro at this, but if you backed up your stock rom then you should have the apk backed up in there somewhere, i would think. I would do some searching in the backup file and see if you can extract the apk from there and re-install it.
[HTC One X+] xxxrichievxxx:

When I flash an AOSP rom and it goes to the Android is updating screen it says that I have around 100 apps, but when I flash a sense rom it says it's updating around 250 apps. Anyone have any suggestions on where I need to look to eliminate these extra files? I've used ROM cleaner and a few different file explorers to try and fix it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Sense ROM's have many more files, hence the difference in apps you see updating. You can use ROM cleaner to get rid of some of those apps, but it'll still be larger than most AOSP ROM's.

Can you make Glowfly work without popups? I hate the idea of popups but I miss quick reply. What I mean is, if I turn the popups off, can I tap on a notification in my notification bar to make the quick reply pop up (similar to how it works by default in CM10.1)? I put the CM10.1 messaging app on my phone for that reason alone but it's pretty buggy in TW. Thanks for any insights!

Then it detects again the flash drive then reports the error. The problem goes on and on until i removed the flash drive.

Otg cable faulty.

I had a similar experience recently where it would not connect until i twisted, and fiddled with the wire for some time and at one exact position it would come up then if the cable is shaken just a little, it is unmounted unexpectedly.

Try a different otg cable. I'm sure it would work without any problem.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mookie Mann:
Having Same problem with OTG cable

My phone details:

Verizon i605 Note II

Beanstowns106 Build 9

Cable is in Standard Samsung box labled simply USB Connector in bold then underneath Micro USB type

from seller on Amazon: This approx. 4 inch cable is the straight type (not the one with 90 degree micro usb end)

When I insert it, above the notification area, I get a msg. USB cable connected. Same when I unplug it usb cable disconnected.

I have tried a usb mouse, usb keyboard, several thumbdrives formatted to FAT32. I get nothing on any scenario.

Can't find nothing in systems settings. Gave up on this cable even with Samsung markings on it. Inside the box the instruction sheet was in Chinese only. It was a $15 dollar cable.

Finally I broke down and ordered the $3 dollar cable with the 90 degree micro usb end. My Amazon confirmation tells me after the fact it's shipping from China and should be here by April 15th!

Would it be more painless to order the Smart Dock? I just need extra thumbdrive storage for FLAC files to use with a portable FiiO Amp/DAC in the pocket.

Has anyone found a way to get this working yet, much obliged for comments.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mookie Mann:
Got this resolved. In case others find themselves in the same situation. Here's what I did. Since all was lost, I cut the cable in the middle, it's only four inches so cut wisely. I can recall the original color pinout but that don't matter as long as you end up with this.

micro usb side: Red wire goes to USB side Red wire. (I believe they were orig. reversed with Black)

micro usb side: Black wire goes to USB side Black wire (Again I think they were orig. reversed with Red)

micro usb side White wire goes to USB side Green wire

micro usb side Green wire goes to USB side White wire

Now the tricky part... Gently pry open the plastic housing on the micro usb connector with an exacto blade then wire jumper the Red wire on the end of the connector i.e. top right from the rear view, and fold the small jumper underneath to the unused pin (same side underneath) an solder it.

test your work then epoxy the plastic housing back on. The cable is too short for shrink wrap, so fingernail or varnish your solder joints and let dry then electrical tape the p**s on it. Best of Luck!

MAJOR EDIT BELOW.....

Okay, I need to edit this post before someone else fries a neuron. Disregard the above mod. This is the correct wiring diagram don't fall for images google give you. I had it working and disassembled it to document it for you gys.

here goes.....

First place a yellow wire into the unused pin on the micro usb connector side.

Next solder that yellow wire to the Red wire and then solder those two wires to the Red wire on the Female USB 2.0 connector!

originally I said Black but it's actually the other red wire.

Then connect the Green wire (Data +) to the other sides White wire (Data -)

Similarly connect the remaining White wire (Data -) to the other sides Green wire (Data +)

Finally solder the to Black Ground wires together.

Note: if you want get fancy and charge the phone while your using some device in the female socket, I'll figure that out tomorrow as the google tutorials adding the 100K ohm resister didn't work for me.

I'll also be adding a switch and mini USB in order to connect a portable audio DAC for Hi-Fi FLAC use. It's 3:AM so it'll be done later tomorrow or Sunday if anyone is interested in doing this mod as well. Later! mookie man.

Hi I was looking for a fix with my problem.

I just bought a OTG cable then when i tried to put a flash drive on my N2 N7105 it won't detect the USB. I tried 4 kinds of USB also format them to FAT32 and NTFS but still my device cannot see the flash drive that i put in. the i thought maybe my OTG cable has a problem. so when we test it on the same device with my friend it connects automatically. Also I'm rooted and didn't flash any rom im just using the stock rom. anyone can help?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mookie Mann:
Maybe Bad Cable?

I had bought the Samsung OEM USB OTG cable from Amazon. It was a bad cable I received. Then I went back and ordered an cheap OTG cable from vendor eForCity. It costs like a dollar sixty. 1.60USD. Do an Amazon search for Samsung SIII OTG cable. It works on my Note II and I tested it on the new S4 and it worked on all three models. You will know your looking at the right cable if it's a right angle connector and costs a dollar sixty. I just checked the price right now (1.59). I'm not sure I'm allowed to post the direct link on the forum, but you WILL find it! While your at it order a spare for backup. Good luck with the next one!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] onecrzyasian:
So I have two questions:

1. Does overclocking even offer noticeable performance gains such as faster apps loading and smoother rather than like higher benchmark scores and higher fps on some games? (and I mean 1600 vs 1800 for the cpu)

2. I am on the skynote rom and I always seem to have very low free ram left. About 30-60mb free. Is that normal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] g2tegg:
Your mileage will vary when it comes to overclocking. Personally, I notice a big difference. Yet the battery drain isn't worth it in the long wrong. So I'll underclock/overclock depending on what I'm doing.

As far as free ram, it all depends on what apps you have installed. That and what apps are all running in the background.

I run JediX, so most Samsung apps are removed. Only the ones I need are added. Typically I have around a GB free
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hapticxchaos:
I used to swear by OC'ing, especially in my hero/droid days. However, I couldnt imagine the benefit of OC'ing this guy..........the few times I've run a kernel with overclocking baked in, I noticed 0 difference. Just more battery drain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gfrt94yn:
Depending on the reason you're OCing, your results will vary. If you just want a smoother experience, using your phone as any normal person would, overclocking will smooth it out a little bit, but nothing too significant. However, if you're running very power hungry apps (like emulators, fps, ect.) it makes a HUUUGE difference. I am able to run any n64 game full speed and lag free (notably, goldeneye), and doesn't seem to make any significant changes to battery life either. As far as low ram, I would get any task manager and just blow out any apps you're not using.

Hope this helps

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Nicgraner:
It will vary due to the fact that all ROMs framework and structure is different so everything needs to be tweaked specifically.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Epix4G:
It's not really based on cm per say ... they use the note 2 device tree from cm.... it's basically just the drivers they use the Roms themselves are totally different
