You should be able to hold the power and volume down for 10 seconds to force shut down then hold both volumes and power to go into the tools area, go down to recovery and use volume up to select it

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Vagabondage80:
Tried it, no dice. Holding power for 10 secs makes it reboot (replays M logo) but holding the volume keys makes no diiference.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] prstorero:
Are you sure you're holding the power and volume down to force it to shut off then holding all three buttons for the tools area? I've never seen someone unable to access that menu

Full-Throttle Team

Android Aggression Team
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Vagabondage80:
Yeah, holding down the power and volume down appears no different than just holding down the power. Either way as soon as I let go it reboots, shows the M, goes black. Holding all three does the same thing, making it seem like holding the volume keys doesn't make any difference.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Vagabondage80:
Okay, just rebooted it one more time and tried hitting both volume keys before the logo appeared. It immediately went to Fastboot (no menu). Running the Unbrick tool, cautiously optimistic.

Ran the UnbricXT912Jellybean tool, ended up the exact same. At least I know how to get into recovery now. Any other next steps?

I can. I just have to hit the buttons at the right moment. I only have the stock recovery - can I just install the base JB files as an update?

when i was on ICS rom whether being cleanrom or viperxl i can get at least 24 hours with 2-3 hours of screen time. now with JB i am not getting that. i am using the same apps and widgets. right now i am using custom kernels(that is suppose to improve battery life). is JB using more battery than ICS?

i flash different roms cm10, aopk, miui, and sense base, and using different kernels. is it possible along the way something went wrong causing my battery to deteriorate?

Try app called greenify from play store. I wasn't sure of it at first but it works great at keeping residual processing hogs like Facebook, Google maps, and anything else you chose in a frozen yet accessible state unlike titanium backups "freeze" which leaves it less accessible
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] claudiuslu2011:
i will give that app a try.

is one hour of game playing same as one hour of youtube? use same battery?

so i charge my phone this morning and it says 100% with green led light, then i restart the phone now it only shows 87%, so i shut off the phone to charge, took maybe 10 mins and it is back to 100%. any ideas??
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Are you overclocking the custom kernel?

What radio? You might try the JB radio, as there might be a ROM/radio mismatch causing some extra battery drain.

Let me start by saying I have never Fashed,Rooted, or anything else but use a cell. I hooked up with sprint for 4 S3's and realize now that the service is horrible. There is only two places I go, home and Yuma Arizona and both have zero service. radioshack wants to sell me two signal boosters at a wapping $500.00 and I say BS. I found the PRL numbers but my phone has the update that hides the PRL buttom on the ##3282# screen. I have searched all around and found one post that touched on the subject about needing to flash an app but after that this is all greek to me. I someone can explain the process i would be very appreciative. remember this would have to be very detailed as I am clueless to even begin to flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Well first of all, PRLs have absolutely nothing to do with signal. You will get no speed boost unless 800smr is added to the prl AND enabled in your area. Read through the "What is a PRL" article in the first of the two links below

Every Sprint PRL (read through this carefully, and find out what a PRL is and is NOT)

As for the PRL write function, go to xda-university, user section, read up on what a recovery is and how to flash zips

Next, go to the following thread and download the latest one, it works for MB1 as well even though it doesnt say it

To flash that zip and add the PRL write function, you need to be rooted

If you dont wanna root, Digiblur has a guide on how to put on a specific PRL through a computer in the link^ above

Flashable zip to enable PRL writing on MA4 and up:

Did you not look at the coverage maps before signing up?

If your service sucks at home, you can call sprints customer service and probably get a free airwave. It's like a mini cell tower that piggy backs off a broadband internet connect which you would have to have.

You can try updating your profile. Last but not least i believe you have 15 day period to return everything.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0b126:
I bought 2x Samsung Galaxy Note 2 phones off newegg for $650 each. These are unlocked phones, specifically, this device:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16875176414

The data service for just about everyone I've tried sucks horribly. I decided to give T-Mobile a try since they offer 4G HSPA+ 42 in this area.

The person in the store says that I can buy prepaid sim cards. I wind up ordering them over the phone since they only cost $1 instead of $30 for a microsim if you order it that way. The website says I can get 2GB of 4G data per month for $60. I pay my $66 and change after tax.

Immediately, I notice I am getting crappy 2G / Edge comparable speeds. I call customer service and they tell me that because the phones are unlocked and not bought from T-Mobile that 2G / Edge is the maximum speed I can get and that 4G speeds are not possible without purchasing a phone direct from T-Mobile. Neither the person in the store, nor the person that sold me the sim over the phone mentioned this and they are refusing a refund.

Is there any truth to what they are saying about not being able to get 4G if I don't purchase direct from the service provider. Are there any work arounds?

I'm burning with rage right now.

Thanks,

-Bob
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sholsten:
They told you right about the Edge. Our phones don't use the band that T-Mobile uses for 3G. :(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0b126:
what about 4G? and are there any work arounds for this? How is t-mobile selling the galaxy note 2 to its customers with the 4g service?

Are there any providers that offer faster than 2G / Edge for Galaxy Note 2?

I use Straight Talk with AT&T and it has 3G. Thing is AT&T & ST are parting ways. You can only find Straight Talk AT&T Sim cards on Walmart.com & eBay now, and they're going fast. Straight will only be using T-Mobile and that will suck. I'll change so fast their heads will spin if they try to force me from AT&T to T-Mobile.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkstylez:
Although the International Note II's don't have same bands as Tmobiles HSPA+ and you normally will only get 2g/Edge, if you are one of the lucky ones in a TMobile refarmed area you should get HSPA.

---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

T-Mobile's version of the Note 2 has the HSPA+/4G band for their specific network which the N7105 doesnt have..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3_:
Well A) you've bought an n7100 which doesn't support dc-HSDPA anyway so you'd only get up to 21 instead of 42mbps

B) you bought it without checking if it supports the radio bands you need for your carrier, which it doesn't, which is why you're only getting 2g speeds. It's nothing to do with t mobile capping you to 2g
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChodTheWacko:
Wow, lots of wrong information both there and in this thread.

This is a quick post so some of my numbers might be wrong, but here's the basics:

Two years ago, t-mobile's 3G/4G relied on the 1700 band, which the N7100 doesn't support.

To make a long story short, t-mobile is using 1700 for LTE, and moving their 3G onto the univerally supported 1900 band, which works on our N7100 and most international phones.

This is a gradual rollout. If your area has been 'moved', you'll get 3G. And by gradual I mean one tower at a time.

I don't think they expect full US 1900 3G till end of 2013.

It's only recently that NY had enough 1900 band support that I have now decided to move over to t-mobile.

we might not support 4200, I did some random spot testing and I think I was only getting 2100.

Previously, with my note 1, I had to dump t-mobile and go to AT&T which fully supports 1900.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0b126:
I went to Dallas the other day and brought the Tmobile sim with me. The my speed changed from E to H+ (sometimes 3G) and the data connection was considerably faster than 2g or 3g, but I frequently get a message stating, "You have lost data connectivity because y".... the rest of the message is cut off and I haven't found a way to read the entire thing because touching it brings me to a settings screen and trying to move the text by swiping or sliding clears the message.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chalid:
Hi,

I got a question and hope anyone can help with it:

I have a brand new android device (Tolino Shine ereader), which is using a locked UI where normal Android-apps aren't accessible. So I can't get into the settings menu (to turn on USB-debugging or allow unknown apk installations) or launch any apps. The only default Android app available is the internet browser.

ADB is disabled. System Recovery <e3> only shows reboot and reset options. No other options present.

Android Version is 2.3.4.

Is there an option or a trick to access the default android settings? For example by putting in some shortcut into the browser or setting up an html file to launch an activity or something like that. I already used google, but came up with nothing. Maybe someone here has an idea.

thanks,

chalid

Two semi serious questions:

1. How does Polaris feel like a paranoid uncle (I'm genuinely curious - I work for QO and use it fairly often when testing things for customers or just spying on our "competition"'s apps)?

2. It looks like the Galaxy 2 tab can get Jellybean - do you really need Swiftkey with Jellybean (since Jellybean supports the swiping motion)?

-Keri
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anthropolis:
Haha I was just being goofy, I simply like QuickOffice better and the general layout and interface of Polaris bothers me for some reason. Purely my own opinion.

Yes jb does have swype, but I don't use it. SwiftKey works better for me and my large fingers, as you can increase the key sizes (sm, med, or lg) . With the stock keyboard, I'm always banging wrong keys. Swift seems to have much better predictions, so I'm much more efficient by using the prediction. It also learns ur patterns. Sorry it sounds like an advert lol
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanshadow:

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qocarekeri:
No worries on the advert front - I get a little frustrated with the keyboard myself, so I'm kind of shopping for a new one to use.

I'd have to agree with you - Quickoffice > Polaris (but I'm biased :D)

Delivery: was quite impressive >> within 8/9 days to my home with hongkong normal postal service usd 2 approx for that(dont remember really)

Pros over stock back plate:

1. Metalic look colors as u may be able to figure that out in my pix. + the "GALAXY NOTE 2" is embossed on it.

2. The Camera whole is pushed lil over the lens glass which now allows me to place the phone on its back ;) as earlier i was afraid always to not scratch it.

3. Embossed GALAXY NOTE II: its really loooks s*xy

No signal droop for me till now

And forgot to mention 1 con . No nfc. any ways I don't use it only may be once a month to transfer my mixes and some pictures to my sisters s3

Alluminium Bumber purchased from: http://www.mcbub.com/item/New-Alumi...or-Samsung-N7100-Galaxy-Note-2--Black-153692/

Delivery: nearly gave me heart attack as it was nearly 20-25 days, but i must admit i went with the cheap shipping. but overall it fits very well. Pictures for Bumper alone is also added

Pros:

Ofcourse it looks s'xy and plus it protects the "SO called" side chromes
