[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jo The Veteran:
So I did some digging. Apparently some micro USB2 charge cables have 5 pins, which is primarily used for OTG functionality.

If found those two images of galaxy USB cables that specifically show the absence of the ID pin. However I couldn't find a Note 2 cable picture but I'm pretty it doesn't have one since it doesn't need to act as a host device.

The link for Recovery Package/ROM is dead

Can you please provide a new link? or the file name so I could try and get it somewhere else?

I know it's such an old topic, but I'm terribly noob at this, all I do is just follow the instructions step by step (if there is one) but none of the other guide has worked so far.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jessicahlightwood:
Didn't work for me

I tried everything, but it isn't working for me. Followed step by step, even tried boatloader by itself but it failed. When I try all the steps including the pit it stays on pit mapping...

Not quite sure what it is but I think my phone has the "half sds" issue...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolffe01192937:
Hi,

I went trough all the steps without and then with PIT flashing and nothing worked. With pit flashing it just stood on get pit for mapping.

In detail here's my issue: My phone froze on lock screen and I couldnt lock it, home button did nothing, power button did nothing, touch didnt work. Upon restarting it got stuck on on the model number screen. Upon trying to initiate Android system recovery a.k.a. hard/factory reset there was an error code in each step saying stuff like: "E: Can't mount /cache/last_log" or "E: failed to mount /cache (or efs)". Then I tried flashing stock firmware from sammobile, and yes I triple checked the current firmware on my phone and made sure I download the same one. That didn't work, it would fail after sboot or nand, depending which Odin version I used. Then I tried to use this guide which also failed: fails after nand or sboot. And as I said pit flashing would just stay on get PIT for mapping. what can I do do fix it or to be certain it's a faulty motherboard?

Messaging improvements.

A great messaging experience is now even better. You can now add multiple recipients at the same time when you send a text message and automatically save unsent text messages as drafts. You can even edit received text messages before you forward them.

Text replies to incoming calls.

Can't take a call? Now you can send a prewritten text reply to a caller directly from the call answer screen. It's a nice way to let people know that you're not ignoring them.

Internet Explorer improvements.

You can now change your settings to prevent pictures from downloading automatically—an easy way to help keep data usage low. You can also delete selected sites from your browsing history and leave the rest intact.

Wi-Fi connectivity.

Got a favorite Wi-Fi network? Windows Phone 8 will now prioritize Wi-Fi connections based on your connection history.

On one hand, I think the idea would be a great opportunity to be "disconnected" for a while. Just enjoy what's actually going on around you.

Or look into satellite-based internet. I don't know how practical that would be or how much you're willing to spend - they're usually data-capped services, so while it may end up being cheaper than 30 cents a minute (a charge that perhaps exists in order to keep you focused and only have you use it for essential communications), you may or may not get what you want out of it.

[General Topics] post-mortem:
Wow, so you will definitely be spending many days in the middle of nowhere. You should plan on not having any internet access at all, though there will probably be an internet cafe within walking distance of every stop. Save your 2 hours of usage for when you really need it (they may charge by 15 minute intervals, or even by the hour). When you use the wifi, make sure you log out! And, use it smartly: all outgoing emails should be composed ahead of time; if you want to read something (blogs, wikipedia, etc.), it might be more cost effective to just print it out & read it later.

Most of all, as I said, be prepared to spend a lot of time away from the internet. Remember that you can still use your electronic devices, so you can always play (offline) games or whatever if you get bored playing miniature golf.

If you don't have one already, buy a camera, and don't run out of digital storage! If you don't have a laptop, someone else will probably have one (so bring some blank DVDs), or you can stop by an internet cafe to burn pictures onto DVD.

Although I didn't read the link, I think you should do it. You won't remember the stuff you "learned," but you'll remember the trip.

Good luck.
[General Questions and Answers] xtreeme:
Good evening/moring/day, dear community!

I have a problem occured with my deivce.

No it's not bricked... not completely. It's rooted, and I have tried different ROMs (atomic, Alacritous, stock). But after flashing gaple rom v1.1 (which is great, big thanks to bochan, (thumbs up)) - a problem occured. Now, I can't flash any different rom - either Alacritous or Inspiration rom. (for example)

After a re-flash of any different ROM, it boots fine, but during the samsung logo, the phone fades to a white screen and seems to freeze. A bit later it starts to vibrate (typycal "force close" gesture). Yes, I did format data/cache and did a full wipe, prior to flashing. What is strange that no other ROM seems to work - other than gaple v1.1

So, the questions are:

1)What I might be doing wrong

2)What causes a typical white boot (or fading to white, to be more specific)

3)Is it possible (or a good idea) to format phone completely (all internal memory) and start from scratch?

4) -any other suggestions are welcome.

Thank you in advance!

I'm a bit confused - is it still a considered a "soft brick" if I do manage to use my phone, just only one specific ROM?

I reflashed stock rom with ODIN (worked fine) but I still can't flash other custom roms.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:
Hello everyone, I have Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.2 odexed made by bixie and I decided to flash Franco Kernel and after the first boot, I was messing with the voltage control (undervolting) and I accidently messed up on one voltage setting which led to the bootloop. I was pretty sure I didn't set it on boot so I thought it will boot like nothing happened, which it didn't. I was going to backup before flashing Franco Kernel, but I was too lazy (lesson learned)

After realizing I messed up, I connected my phone to the computer to give enough charge. First, I flashed the old Kernel version (still 4.2.2) to see if the values are resetted, but still bootloop. After that, I went to recovery and re-flashed the ROM and rebooted... Bootloop. Is there any way for me to fix this problem without me factory resetting this device? I really don't know what to do now. Thanks

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ammo1981:
hello everyone. Has anyone had any problems network unlocking the RAZRi's? I bought the phone about 4 weeks ago from a t mobile customer. Im on the 3 network, so i paid and ordered for the unlocking code from cellunlocker.net. I recieved the code but it didnt seem to work, so i got the 16 digit unlock code from another website. Both party's have given me the same exact code and have confirmed this is the only unlock code for the phone. Whenever i enter the code on the unlock screen, nothing happens. i can enter any number any amount of times and the phone just reverts back to the unlock screen. Ive been messing around with this phone for nearly 4 weeks now trying to unlock it. I flashed different firmwares just incase it was a firmware related problem. Tried, GB Retail and Europe but no luck. Before a penalty timer used to kick in on the en.orange firmware after entering the code, now after flashing to GB and Europe and reflashing back to orange.en i dont get no penalty timers. Ive come to a point, where im thinking of selling the phone to tmobile/orange sim user and going out and buying a unlocked razr. Im just wondering, if i have hardlocked my phone? Ive been without my phone line for nearly a month now...Someone please help me :(
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharpnShiny:
Hello, I was considering buying my phone locked on a network and using cellunlocker too.

Firstly, if you paid for their service, and it doesn't work - go back to them. Do that before you move on. They told me they can unlock the RAZR i. You are a paying consumer - you paid - they must deliver.

Don't imagine the worst; it's your phone network, it's this complicated phone/software etc. P.s. I have faith in these services normally, I think some of them are legitimate and some aren't.

Let us know what cellunlocker says. :good:

I like how they do the droptest. Cause that's what usually happens when you drop a phone. But I would have appreciated it if they would have tried it on a concrete floor. And if the Z would survive I'm gonna buy Z and disregard ZL.

Waterproofness is not really for me I already had quite a number of mobile phones for like more than a decade and not even 1 dived in the water. Also I had non waterproof phones which got wet with rain and I must say rain alone is not enough to kill your phone. It's not like I would open the back cover of the phone and let rain pour inside the handset lol!

I have several Android tablets running the Rockchip 3066 processor.

I have tried all of the torrent clients available on Google Play, and find that while downloading files it really bogs down the whole tablet's resources. So much so, that you pretty much can't do anything else.

Very little is written about this problem, but I'm curious if there are any ROM tweaks available to eliminate this performance hit caused from running a torrent client. If so, I want to adjust the ROM'S I'm cooking for the Yuandao tablets.

All of my devices are very speedy....except when downloading torrents.

[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
If it's only while downloading, then it could be a bandwidth issue. You could run Android's built-in firewall to limit the connection speed.

If it's the apps suck all the processing power available, then yeah, you'd probably have to adjust some code in your ROM... which I can't help you with.
[General Questions and Answers] rrileypm:
It is the latter, because it doesn't really matter what the download speed is...it just sucks all the CPU power.

As soon as the download is done, everything speeds back up.

I still think it is twodayportedapp fault. With uTorrent, my device is totally bogged even when it is downloading slower than 1kb/s

[General Questions and Answers] buggs2k:
Every torrent application will lag your phone/table it you're downloading to your primary SD Card. This is becase Androids needs to preallocate the full size of the downloaded files. So when Android zero filles 2Gb of files, then the read/write speed for other applications on the internal storage will drop, thus you'll get a lot of lag. Once the preallocation is over the phone comes back to live again (that is if you're not downloading with +10Mb/s speed of more).

Only way to avoid the lag is to have an external SD Card and download to it. BTW you can try my new torrent application TDM. Maybe it'll suit your needs better? (it has no problems with downloading to extarnal cards and it has a file manager to allowes you to manage the file on multiple cards with ease).

[Transformer TF300T General] temp9300:
Any thoughts on this new memo pad smart? The specs seem almost the same except these advantages i have found in each model..

Asus Memo pad Smart

+usb conector instead of proprietary

+2 speakers - stereo (tf300t only has one speaker)

+camera has flash

+tablet is lighter

Asus TF300T

+dock connector for keyboard (a bluetooth keyboard will be available for the memo pad)

+8 mpixel camera with autofocus (memo pad has 5 mpixel)

+available in 16 and 32gb versions (memo pad only has 16gb)

+ips display 178º angle (memo pad has 170º angle)

Unless you really need the dock maybe the memo pad is a cheaper alternative with no significant disadvantages..

Question:

-is this one still plagued by the same i/o issues
[Transformer TF300T General] atomicblue:
only noticeable differences are that the memo pad can render video at 1080p while the tf300 can only render it at 720p and the lack of the docking keyboard on the memo pad.
[Transformer TF300T General] temp9300:
Are you sure about this? i find it strange since the hardware on both is pratically equal, so, if one can play 1080p the other should also be able to do it.
[Transformer TF300T General] Evan_:
I don't get the memo pad 10". It's very similar to the TF300. It has lower battery life and is a bit lighter. Not much else to write about. Are ASUS in a bit of a panic and try to saturate the market with similar products?
[Transformer TF300T General] NixZero:
its cheaper to build and the dock sales are poor for the 300 so from their perspective no reason to waste money in components and logistics for it.

they arent saturating the market, tf300 is in EOL, its not producted anymore, the new memopad substitute it.
[Transformer TF300T General] vap_66:
It's obvious that the TF300T can work with 1080p movies since it can record them. :rolleyes:
[Transformer TF300T General] joelalmeidaptg:
Yes... I'm also able to watch all my series at 1080p (using unters kernel)
[Transformer TF300T General] Evan_:
The TF300 is still listed in the ASUS website though.

I think the remark was about the HDMI output, whether being able to support 1080p or not. Because in the Memo pad features it explicitly states 1080p support, but it doesn't state it in the tf300 page.
[Transformer TF300T General] xaueious:
To explain the spec differences (1080p), it probably has the new and updated Tegra 3 chip also used in the TF700 (http://www.anandtech.com/show/6036/asus-transformer-pad-infinity-tf700t-review/3). This means faster core clocks, and faster graphical capabilities because of higher memory bandwidth. They probably used a slightly better emmc chip as well, because they'd really be dumb otherwise.

Maybe they would have added 5GHz WiFI?

At the end of the day, the Memo Pad is just another middling 10" tablet, and there are plenty of those around already. This might be a cheap alternative to keep and eye out for, however.

Screen resolution is low. I notice it on my TF300. Tegra 3 is outdated. No NFC is a deal breaker.

$299 is too much money to spend for this in 2013.
[Transformer TF300T General] vap_66:
Tried a full HD movie via HDMI, the TV reported it to be 1080p as well. Didn't seem to be downscaled.
[Transformer TF300T General] Evan_:
Nope, the specs state 1.2GHz Tegra3

http://www.asus.com/Tablet_Mobile/ASUS_MeMO_Pad_Smart_10/#specifications

I think it's just a difference in marketing and timing when they mention 1080p output for the Memo pad, and do not mention it for the tf300.
