[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunatje:
Hello,

I've got a question about the volume adjuster.

I know it sounds weird but is there a mod to lower the volume of the galaxy note 2?

When i choose to lower the sound while playing a game it's still to loud for me.

My Phone is rooted.

Running omega v15 with perseus

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlitos66:
try to follow this thread, read it all the way to the end carefully. I was able to greatly improve the volume with this mod, you will be able to lower it as well. You will have to play with the settings, but it works. ( it took me 3 days to find optimal settings, so the sound was not distorted, not too loud etc...) hope it helps you.

Can I flash a ringtone zip file so they'll be in my ringtones?

As long as the .zip is made properly. Its probably just as easy to manually move them with a file.explorer. /system/media/audio then pick a folder, alarms, notifications or ringtones. A simple copy/paste then reboot.

Every now and then i get a message saying that the SIM card is missing, even though it is inserted. When i take it out after this, i get another message saying that the SIM card has been removed (different message).

All results in a prompt to restart the device when i insert it again. No way around that one, cant even press back or home.

This never happened before updating to Stock XXCLL1 JellyBean 4.1.1.

What can be the problem? Need some input on how to solve this, also is anyone else experiencing this?

Original Post:

Hi, there!

I bought a Sony Xperia Ion HSDPA (LT28h) in early February and some weeks ago I somehow scratched the screen –TBH I don't now what exactly happened to f**k it up as I tend to be careful, but, whatever–. There is a little scratch about 1mm long and 0.1mm deep which is noticeable by finger at usage time, and a very tiny one next to it which's almost inappreciable.

I've been wondering about it and found things like banana-rubbing, toothpaste applying, a product called Displex –which really called my attention– and screen protectors (actually, Ion seems to have a pre-applied one).

So the dilemma is: Should I either ignore it or try some fixing method?

I'll really appreciate your opinion, experiences with these methods and so on.

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] w3nZ:
My scratch is over the whole screen. I ignored it for several weeks, now i´m buying a new screen protector to replace the pre-installed one.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Serede:
Thanks for the reply. In case you get a nice result please let me know how did you do it exactly and maybe I'll take that way too.

Ignore. My ion has a few scratches but the screee still looks nice.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] UchihaDareNial:
Re: [Q] [ION] Tiny scratches: To ignore or not to ignore?

That's the use of screen protector....to protect the screen...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Serede:
Yeah the screen works perfectly, no color nor quality artifacts in the scratched zone. It's just annoying at touch and I wanted a working solution.

If I decided to replace screen protector, would I need to remove Sony pre-applied one first? And, how should I do it? I'm afraid it maybe has Sony logo baked-in just like Xperia Z =S

Greetings.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] UchihaDareNial:
Re: [Q] [ION] Tiny scratches: To ignore or not to ignore?

Sony pre-applied screen protector is the best one...and nah,Xperia Z is the first to have Sony logo baked in the screen protector

Would http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1762976 work? And could I add it over the pre-applied one without removing it?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcerMate:
Hello to everyone,

I have a Note II since 3 weeks. After putting the phone to wall charger, wait until screen shuts off and then bring the screen on again, (by pressing power button or Home button) it shows "Charging 0%" and the battery icon shows empty. Also, the phone heats up right below back camera. And finally, if I unplug from charger, it shuts down by itself.

Also, when on, if I leave TuneIn radio open, after screen goes off it shuts down by itself in max 2 minutes.

The following operations have been done to the phone:

- took it to service and they just reflash it with stock firmware 4.1.2 ORO

- did a wipe / reset to default

- removed the SD card

- no application installed after wipe / reset

- replace the battery with another one, same thing

- installed MEM check and this CPU verifier from PlayStore and they report the phone is not insane.

All the above had no effect on the behaviour. Calls are OK, except sometimes I find the phone off sometimes.

Does anyone have any opinion, is it hardware or software issue?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonymontana079:
More of a guess but have you tried another battery it could be defective not charging causing the heat up.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leeroy1034:
i have this problem too its just human error i think because it happens to me mostly when i let the battery

go all the way to 0% then charge it and try turning it on or using a wrong wall plug .what i do is remove the battery so it completely turns off then put it back let it charge for about 30minutes then im back
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larry_thagr81:
Great point, I've tried to power up a completely dead Motorola Droid a while back via USB and it wouldn't powerup because the USB port on computers only put out 500mAh vs the stock 850mAh charger that the phone came with. Once I plugged it up to wall charger, it was able to power up immediately and charge.

The same argument can be made for the Note II if you aren't using the stock charger because the stock charger puts out 2 amps (2000mAh). Most phone chargers put out 1 amp or less and if we are talking about accessory chargers for products like bluetooth devices, you typically get a 500-600mAh charger.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcerMate:
Had tried with another original battery (as mentioned) and no change.

Used all the time stock charger, also tried another charger, still the same.

Took it back to service, hope for the best.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcerMate:
SOLVED! It came back from service and they have replaced something called "flex". Now is OK.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] B Feelgood:
I have been using the following APN settings with various phones on Straight Talk with a T-Mobile sim for the last two years with no problems.

APN: wap.tracfone

Proxy: empty

Port: empty

MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com

MMS proxy: 216.165.155

MMS port: 8080

MCC: 310

MNC: 260

APN type: *

I got the over the air update this morning which included LTE and now my internet connection doesn't work. Can anyone please provide me with updated APN settings so that my internet connection will work again. :highfive:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jonathan3579:
Why are you using that MMS proxy? There's not one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] B Feelgood:
Update: Found out that during the firmware update/flash, my old APN was deleted and replaced with the fast.t-mobile APN and that's why it wasn't working. I reentered the old APN that I posted above and all is well again. However, I have seen some people saying that the new fast.t-mobile APN works fine for them on Straight Talk with no adjustments needed. I wonder why it only works for some and not all?

Good question! I found those settings on the net and they worked so I never bothered to mess with them. I took out the MMS proxy that you mentioned and it still works and actually seems a bit quicker to send/receive MMS. Thanks for catching that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
I am really curious about this too. I read about everyone on other MVNO's being able to use fast.t-mobile.com but with my straight talk sim the only thing that I can get data working with is the wap.tracfone apn settings. I am not in an area with LTE turned on yet though so no way to test anyway. I'd be curious if a straight talk user in an LTE enabled area already still gets LTE service with the wap.tracfone apn.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgamble160:
The fast.T-Mobile apn would not work for straight talk. If that was the case then you wouldn't have needed to change your apn in the first place. You need to use straight talk apn for straight talk. Just like you need T-Mobile apn for T-Mobile or at&t apn for at&t.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bipoler:
So. ......... does statutes talk get access to 42mb o s and lte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] B Feelgood:
People were reporting that the fast.t-mobile was working with no changes needed on other MVNOs such as Simple Mobile. Just curious as to why it would work on others but not ST?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
That appears to be the case I guess what we have to wait for is someone with a tmo straight talk sim in an lte area.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgamble160:
I believe people that said they were getting service e with the fast tmobile apn are full of ****. It doesn't make sense T-Mobile is not going to let anyone with there apn settings connect to there service. If that was the case anyone with a gsm phone e could simply change there Apn settings and use tmobiles data. My girl still uses straight talk and I put here sim card in my note 2 and no data at all with any apn execpt the service I pay for from straight talk and the straight talk apn settings.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mowgie:
I have not updated yet, but do you get that message if you turn off LTE in settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] difrent7:
I have been using Straight talk without any issues until the update. It cleared my APN i put it back in and all was well for a couple of days until today. I have nothing at all as far as data goes. I am running the normal ole straight talk apn. When I run T-mobile APN I get 4g data icon but nothing works. If i remove the wap from my straight talk apn i get an indicator I have data working again but it doesn't work. The moment I put the wap. back into the APN everything stops working. The weird part is how it was fine for a couple of days after the update and now today it isn't.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] B Feelgood:
Exactly the same situation here and the ST APN is much much slower than the one posted in the first post of this thread. Does anyone have a resolution to this? Is it possible to undo the update?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] difrent7:
Yeah I wouldn't even mind if my data was a little slower but today I have zero data. I had it yesterday after the update but today it just stopped working out of nowhere. If you change the APN to anything besides wap.tracfone it says it connects to 4g but obviously nothing happens. Talked to straight talk and they said it must be my phones fault and refused to do anything (typical). Hope someone can figure out how to get around this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] difrent7:
Whoops my bad! >_<

Well I let the phone sit overnight and it was working fine this morning with the same APN straight talk recommends.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] moltenbobcat:
You aren't crazy the same thing happened to me last night I think something was down I couldn't get any connectivity with straight talks apn if I switched to the tmo apn the 4g icon would come up but no data would go through after a few hours the straight talk apn started working again. I thought maybe I had finally used too much data, but reading on the straight talk forums last night it wasn't an isolated issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jonathan3579:
I had to ask because those settings were for "dumb phones" and I figured it would be slower. In fact, I don't even use port 8080 because in my inconclusive tests the speed tests were slower 90% of the time. Glad I was able to help in some way, lol. The LTE (fast.t-mobile.com) APN settings said I needed to sign into network. :(

[Motorola Droid RAZR] RAZRsharpChopSticks:
About a month ago I did the jelly bean update (the Verizon one which they didn't mean to push, with the GSM patch if that makes any difference) and everything was working fine, the screen when i first turn on showed a "Contact Dealer" and "Boot to Suspend" but I was using BMM and after that came up it would then come up the Andriod with the cogs spinning and would auto boot after 3 seconds, no problems what so ever, and it was my daily driver for about a month.

Last night I wanted to put on CM 10.1, I installed safestrap not thinking about BMM already on my phone, now Safestrap (3.11) classes the Jelly Bean ROM as my stock ROM, I don't mind that but now when running CM 10.1 when I plug the USB into it (for connection to my computer) it reboots the phone, it shows the "Contact Dealer" screen and then just goes black. In this state that is no connection to the computer because of the reboot and also it wont boot past it. If I disconnect the phone and then force restart and it boots no problem into CM 10.1.

I come here in hope that someone knows what I can do to have it so I can plug my phone into the computer, while at college i experience heavy use a lot of the time (being bored and what not) and i sometime need to just boost my battery a bit, any input or solution is valued.

Thanks
