[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pete2bec2:
I recently flashed Captivating 4.22 x1 ROM on my i777. It worked very well, great battery and better reception than I was getting on AOcP 4.12. However, after heavy use, I would lose the internal SD card. All of my apps on the card would say not installed. I fixed permissions and it was fine again for a while. I changed to AJK 1.3 kernel. It seemed better, but then the same thing happened. I rebooted, but got stuck in boot loop. Manually entered recovery, recovered to AOcP 4.12 and then reflashed Captivating 4.22 (same version, new download, MD5 checked). After 2 days, my SD card disappeared again. I fixed permissions and I'm fine, for now. Any ideas? I'd love to keep the battery life, better reception, and cool Xperia apps.

I went through all the steps to modify the speaker volume on my phone (link here) ---> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1769284

The phone rebooted as said on the guide, but i got a error code just after phone rebooted on my computer. i thought nothing of it and dismissed it then went to my phone but to my surprise no volume changes where made everything was still the same. another thing to note is that when i selected my phone using the QTSP service programming application it stated that my phone number is different from what it really is.

P.S. the attached file is the exact error that the program showed
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] luigi311:
I believe that has no affect on the volume or very little I tried it before but I can't remember if it actually affected it or not. I know it actually submitted the changes I made to the device because I changed my carrier to xCHANCLASOx and that's how it appeared when I went into the settings to get it out
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] spaghettiknight:
ya that's another thing because when i brought my phone back into the qstp service config. it said that all my values were as they should be or what i changed them too, im thinking about changing the speaker volume to 4 (1 is the quietest and 4 is the loudest, and 2 is the defualt) but im kinda nervous about blowing a speaker does any one have a evo lte running 4 as a speaker level
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakio12:
It seems there are a lot of bluetooth issues with the Nexus 4. I couldn't find a thread with my issue, so here goes.

While streaming audio to my bluetooth car stereo, everything works great, the audio quality is good and the controls on the unit work. However, if I touch the phone screen to control the music instead of the stereo, the audio stops streaming 50% of the time, and won't come back on until I restart the bluetooth connection. An example is that I'm listening to Pandora, and I thumbs down a song, it skips, starts playing the song, but there is no audio. The bluetooth controls still work, just no audio. Same with YouTube if I skip to the next video in a playlist or skip the ad. Also in Play Music it happens, and even in Google Now. With Google Now, sometimes when I hit the microphone, it will just sit there initializing, and if I hit back and try again, it just stays initializing until I disconnect bluetooth, which it then turns on the recognition twice.

It is only from interacting with the phones screen instead of using the bluetooth device. I can't see it being the bluetooth device, anyone else have this issue? :confused:

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with my SD card. It automatically become undetectable several times in a week. Sometime it become visible on restarting the cell and sometime i have to reinsert the SD card in the slot for making it visible.

Is it port issue or any s/w issue?

Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

Hi

maybe your sdcard is buggy. Try to test it on another device, if it behaves the same its the card.

You on 4.2.1 or 4.2.2?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
You cant force it to stay on hspa+ all the time. Same thing applies to a WiFi signal. You can't force a WiFi device to stay connected to WiFi all the time when you're out of range. When you are out of range you will lose the signal and it will try to reconnect.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurael:
You can change WCDMA preferred to WCDMA only in the *#*#4636#*#* menu... It doesn't mean signal will magically reach your phone though, it could just be the the N4 isn't as good at picking up a weak-ish 3g signal as your old device. I can't imagine they will have set it up to band-hop unless the signal on wcdma is somewhat marginal.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] horr1blek1tten:
I know I won't magically get signal I know I have signal it just keeps switching even tho I have signal in h. I thought it switches when it gets really weak I get really good speeds with two bars I don't consider that weak.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ian577416:
It switches in response to demand from the device. If your phone is idle or at the very least not using network intensive applications it will ramp the radio down to 3G/Edge. Once your phone detects that you're running applications that demand more network allocation it will adjust appropriately to HSPA+. This is a feature not a bug and if your phone was always using it's HSPA+ capabilities then your battery wouldn't last half a day. I don't even think you can force enable HSPA+ always on anyway, I may be wrong though. If you get it though remember to carry your charger with you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azurael:
I might have misunderstood your post a bit, but EDGE does not run on 3G. EDGE works on 2G networks. HS(D/U)PA(+) works on 3G networks. The phone should try to hold on to a 3G (WCDMA, whether that be using HSPA or not) network in preference to a 2G (GSM, whether using EDGE or not) network as long as a strong enough signal is available. Although it was not worded as such, I think the OP was enquiring as to why the phone was dropping to 2G when 3G signal is available, not concerned by whether that 3G signal was HSPA or not and asking if it was possible to switch to 3G only, and I explained how to do that. No modern smartphone automatically drops from 3G/HSPA to 2G/EDGE to save battery, I don't think modern modems draw that much more power when talking to a 3G network. The device will automatically fall back to 'normal' 3G data to save power when the data connection is not in use, but that's a different matter.

The device is already rooted and the custom firmware that I'm using is not configured to Singapore modem and CSC.

Hence, I did the extraction and zipping it up as per explanation above to extract the modem.bin and also the CSC from the stock firmware to overwrite my custom.

If OK I will proceed to flash.

I don't quite understand about the flash_image. It seems to be gotten from somewhere and not from the original stock firmware.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Just copy the contents of the required csc (folder) to system/csc/ make sure to delete files not replaced.

In this case csc will be applied after a data wipe. You don't need to mess with cache.

Also just replace modem.bin with a required one.

Hey all,

So I've attempted this multiple times, and looked around for answers - founds some, but didn't quite understand them.

The name says it all: I have a PrimoU device and I am trying to install Paranoid Android. I have done the following:

Full wipe: wiped everything and formatted /system.

Then, I install the ROM from my SD card.

Next, I go to bootloader, fastboot, and flash the boot.img (Hellboy Kernel i think)

Finally, I install gapps.

Am I doing something wrong/ can anyone offer me a solution. I've seen forums saying that I am stuck in a "boot loop" and that I need to flash the boot.img... which I thought I did. I also tried to go inside the ROM and flash that boot.img but it made me loop on the HTC boot.

Regards.
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
Ensure that you use the proper command

fastboot flash boot boot.img.

Does the cmd say 'finished' at the end?
[HTC One V] gdomingo:
Yes I used that command, and it says finished at the end. Which boot.img am I supposed to be flashing though? The kernel right?
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
Hellboy kernel,the latest one from the list.
[HTC One V] gdomingo:
So it goes: Wipe, install ROM, flash kernel (fastboot flash boot boot.img), install gapps... reboot?
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
Yes,just a change of order

Flash kernel,wipe,flash rom,reboot into rom,again into recovery and flash gapps.

(order doesnt affect much)
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
try like this

install kernel - latest hellboy kernel 15022013 - BE SURE TO NOT FLASH THE 4.2 ONE - flash only the one that has CM10 in its name.

boot in recovery

do a factory reset and then wipe system

install rom

reboot

reboot into recovery

install gapps

HW/SW specifics at bottom (if it helps)

Following the instructions provided this great site I added a custom ROM last year and for 6-8 months everything worked perfectly.

I was getting two days charge out of my battery which was is a 200% improvement. I'm not on my phone all the time.

Lately however, my phone has only been charging to 90%, and now 82% and the batt. drains before the day ends.

Using the same instructions here, I restored the phone using CWM with the files listed below (which are the same files I used originally) to restore my phone.

Everything seems to be working fine but I found a bunch of old files and app links to programs I had before so obviously I didn't do a full wipe which is what I was intending to do.

Can I restore my phone by going into CWM > Wipe data/factory reset or do I have to use ODIN to go back to factory firmware (I just downloaded I727RUXLF3_I727RRWCLF3_RWC.zip) to reset then go through the steps all over again.

Pardon the lack of terminology as I have only done this twice so I'm still new to this.

I just don't know what I need to do to get it back to stock and by stock I mean the ROM below.

Thank you all in advance. Hopefully I have provided enough information.

If you want to go back to like New condition I would do the odin process. You'll have to extract the .tar.md5 file out of the zip file you downloaded, the stock rom not the sky files. User 7-zip to extract. Put the extracted file in PDA in odin. Only have the auto reboot and f.reset checked in odin.

You'll then have to odin your recovery back on.

Condition your battery for it to show correctly. Drain battery completely till it won't even turn on. Then plug it in and charge completely with it off. Once done boot phone into recovery cwm. Wipe battery stats. Then reboot.

Make sure battery is not hot to ensure a good charge after draining battery.

Weird battery problem - charging

Ok, here's a weird one, you've probably seen before but it's new to me.

I wiped my phone back to factory stock using Vin's instructions. Followed them to a T and had no problems.

Kies then wanted to update my software (now at 4.1.2) which I let happen because I was just going to wipe it again anyways.

My battery still won't charge past 80%. When turned off, it shows 100% but the second I turn it on it immediately drops to 80%.

The battery life seems to be OK so that's not a problem.

Last night I swapped batteries with my wife's phone (factory stock SGH-T989D).

Here is where it gets weird (for me).

Her phone with my batt. charged to 100% and stays at 100% when turned on.

My phone with her batt. only charges to 80%. Again, when turned off it shows 100%.

So the battery is ruled out as being faulty I would think.

My phone has been factory wiped.... or has it? Did I screw up the wipe and leave some remnant behind?

Is there something I can install that will tell me exactly what is going on?

Suggestions?

I apologize if this type of question has been asked a thousand times but if the battery calibration is a 'myth' then I don't even know what to look for anymore.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hechoen:
Try taking the battery out and leaving it out for 5 minutes. While it's out press and hold power for twenty or thirty seconds. That will discharge any residual juice in the phone. Pop the battery back in and power on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IndyDakota:
Don't know what else to try

I tried that several different times over the weekend. I got it up to 84% from 80% but now it shows 100% charged within a few seconds after plugging in the phone while it is turned on. When I pull the cable, it goes back down to 84%.

I'm thinking of wiping it again but I'm not sure that is going to resolve the problem. Don't know what else to do/try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
Don't ever do this. Draining your battery below 15-20% is actually bad for it, as the heat generated by simply charging it while idle does damage. It's also been shown that the lower the depth of discharge, the more cycles your battery will have in it.

Also, Android devs who work for the big G have said that battery stats are essentially meaningless in this generation of phones. If you do calibrate your phone, don't run the battery all the way down. Get the 100% baseline, then use it as normal.

Download the battery calibration app. I believe Skyrockets max out at 4330 mV, but I could be thinking of the Note II. If the battery calibration app shows that you're in that neighborhood, who cares if the meter says 100% or not? You're getting a full charge.

Tried a different battery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IndyDakota:
Can you recommend a battery calibration app?

I did swap out the batteries as per the post above. I was thinking of charging the wife's batt. to 100% and putting it in my phone. Then do the pull the batt. for five minute trick. At this point it's all about the hail mary.

I'll keep you posted

Update: HAHA! Just gets better and better. Downloaded two battery calibration apps. Both say to charge to 100% before operating... FML.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
I use Battery Calibration. It shows the mV along with the charge level. If you're charging to 4100 mV+ when it freezes at 81%, you're doing ok. If you're only charging to 3000-some mV, your battery's borked.
