Update

:( Well after 5+ hours of countless rebooting and flashing/modding I have failed to bring my vibrant back to life. However... I was able to go real deep into the device's storage hardware both internal and external(sdcard) and discovered that the internal storage is alive and functioning. In other words it is not hardbricked or physically damaged as a result of the EU bug...it is just corrupted and unable to mount.

Furthermore I attempted several times to create or recreate the partions on the internal sdcard but It just would not allow me to do so. By the way this is all done using the "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0" command(s). Hopefully there is some one who understands how to use this "parted" function in adb as this can be a very useful tool in restoring our devices back to normal.

Here are some helpful details I have learned in the process of all of this...

For those who are having trouble entering the commands in the guide make sure you are entering a space in between "parted" and "/dev/..."

At first I forgot to enter the space and as a result I got an error reading "no such file or directory" so make sure to include the space.

adb shell >>>>>>>>>>> Don't forget to enter this command first...won't work otherwise.

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 >>>>>>> mmcblk0 is the external sdcard (at least in my case it is) while mmcblk0p1 is the internal sdcard (in my case)

print >>>>>>>> This command list the specifications for the storage device mmcblk0 along with some other useful information.

rm 1 >>>>>>>> This removes partition 1

rm 2 >>>>>>>> This removes partition 2 (if existent)

While still using the "parted" function in adb shell you can simply type "help" and it will give you all the details on how to use this useful tool.

Well I guess that is all I can say for now. Thanks again cannondale...your guide was certainly helpful and allowed me to learn more about this EU bug and how it is "bricking" our devices. This is certainly a step forward in the right direction...I am confident we will have this EU bug squashed pretty soon once and for all.

signing off.

Thanks manu...this isn't the first time I've read your thread concerning the EU bug. I simply ignored it at first because it seemed a bit too technical at the time. But now that I've gone through this guide cannondale has provided your thread certainly makes more sense. I'll get back to working on this case soon.

[MENTION=3361984]Merio90[/MENTION] ... Just wondering if you made any further progress on the matter. Thanks to cannondaleV2000 for opening these doors and to Merio90 for the detailed posts (esp. concerning syntax). Very interesting thread.

I gave it a go but no nookie for me. In a nutshell, GNU Parted only appears to work on the external sdcard (mmcblk0p1) and not on the internal. Here are my results (after numerous attempts).

RECOVERY ACCESS

My observations flashing Semaphore JB .tar's (after a fresh Odin to Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo.tar).

* Hangs on Semaphore splash: 2.9.21v, 2.9.15sv, 2.9.12sv.

* Recovery access successful: 2.9.21sv, 2.6.5v, 2.5.0sv

EXTERNAL SD REMOVED:

adb shell

# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

Error: Could not stat device /dev/block/mmcblk0 - No such file or directory.

adb shell

# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Error: Could not stat device /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 - No such file or directory.​

EXTERNAL SD INSERTED:

adb shell

# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

Error: Could not stat device /dev/block/mmcblk0 - No such file or directory.

adb shell

# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

GNU Parted 1.8.8.1.179-aef3

Using /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.​

So ... it's rather curious that cannondaleV2000 actually had access to his mmcblk0 while others weren't so lucky. That's the obvious key to using the parted functionality on the internal sdcard. If only we could break through that road block ... and return to the internal sdcard holy grail!! Any thoughts?
[Vibrant General] Merio90:
[MENTION=4376218]yosup[/MENTION]

No I have not made any progress other than the info I have already posted. My vibrant is no longer my daily driver, my Galaxy Nexus is... so my apologies for not giving this issue a higher priority.

I was only able to "fix" my vibrant to the point where I was able to use the SD card swap method many of us have attempted. In case you were unaware I had to take some extra steps as my vibrant was totally screwed up. It was unable to read either internal or external sdcard so that was an obstacle I had to overcome and that's how cannondale's guide was able to help me. So as of today no progress has been made...I haven't really worked on this problem in quite a while now so any progress has come to a halt for now...until someone comes up with a new guide :) On another note, the good news is that I have yet to encounter the EU bug on JB 4.2.2 (AOKP M1). So those who are using the sdcard swap method you should try a JB ROM...they seem to not be vulnerable to this EU bug.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] golf:
Hello,

again I have to turn to the XDA's developers forum specialists for help.

I had to hard-reset my XDA recently. After this I lost the dial up connection that I had with my orange SIM card (regular monthly contract).

It used to work perfectly fine, but now whenever I try to start the internet I receive the error message "unable to connect with current settings".

Orange helpdesk in the UK say they canot support the XDA, since it's not Orange authorized.

o2 helpdesk, says it's a provider problem, so it can only be dealt by Orange. So I am stuck in the middle :-(

What is the proper setting?

Do I need to type in a ISP, DSN no. and dial up no.?

Only filling in "orangeinternet" like in the past somehow does not work...

many thanks in advance

comments on my orange question.

Many thanks for the comments on my orange question.

I tried to fill in some of the data that you mentioned, the XDA stareted also asking for VPN, modem & proxy settings, proxy servers etc.

I noticed when it tried to dial it starts with 011.

Anyway after typing in orangewap, and username, it is now conncted.

On the screen it says dialing from "home" connecting to O2 mobile WAP?

But I can now surf the interenet again, which is fab.

Just recently started using better battery stats , and have been receiving this as a partial wake lock. Other people have suggested it has to do with Google location access and turning it off solves the problem . I tried this but it is still occurring.

Are there separate RIL files that are supposed to be used in conjunction with the modems for ATT sgs3's? Just wondering as some other phones have the option to install these I.e the international s3
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Russ77:
one of the biggest culprits is network location locater. I found that leaving GPS off and WiFi on, with maps/Facebook/Google now set to not auto detect or report location gives very good results.

using the cellular network alone to pinpoint the location when needed seems to consume more battery than just leaving WiFi dormant and letting the phone find its location with both cell towers and WiFi.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Greubin:
Weird experience today..used my phone at lunch, no issues. Went to to use it this afternoon and it would not wake up. I held the power button down for about 10-15 seconds, then it vibrated like it was rebooting. That's when it started to vibrate every 10-15 seconds, similar to a boot loop, but the display is dark. I'm unable to get it to boot into hboot, or recovery. When plugged in, the charging indicator does not illuminate. I think it's bricked. I'm running s-off, and MeanBean. This is the first time I've ever experienced an issue like this with any of my android phones.

I hope that once the battery dies, I can charge it and hope that it boots into hboot, or recovery.

Any suggestions?

Ok so long story short my gtab does not charge through the port, so I received my new docking station. When I Plug it in the dock there is a light on the charger, then if I mount the tab the light will go off and I don't see the tab charging light indicator (red one). This leads me to think something is wrong with tab or charging cord.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SFG:
I really like AOKP and have been running it for years across several different devices. My question is can there really be 7 different AOKP ROMs? 2 of the 7 claim to be "official".

Now before you jump down my throat, I appreciate anyone who busts there a$$ to provide all the cool development.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rodeojones:
I understand your confusion. Technically, there is only one official AOKP release (if I'm wrong, someone can chime in). That can be found here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2170016

The others are builds based off of AOKP and might also be AOKP PUB builds (PUB being Project Unicorn Butter, started by official AOKP developer Steve Spear). His original PUB also says "official," hence the confusion. However, the Rootzwiki thread for these builds was moved to the unofficial section to avoid confusion with the actual official release. Since his stepping away to give himself a break, a few other developers have started building PUB. Technically, these builds are identical to the latest official AOKP build, just with added PUB features and ocassionally some extra cherry picks (which usually end up being in the next official release anyway).

This is the beauty of open source development.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SFG:
Thanks. Makes sense with the addition of PUB to create a separate ROM.

SamsungApps a bit tricky, I notice it install another copy to /data/app after you update it, and it was name as com.sec.android.app.samsungapps-1.apk, I try add icon change there at VRTheme but it not working.

So, what I did was, using root explorer delete the SamsungApps.apk at /system/app, then move the com.sec.android.app.samsungapps.apk from /data/app to /system/app and rename it as SamsungApps.apk. Set correct permission, and finally restart to recovery and re-flash again the VRTheme.
