[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] percy5911:
i tried usein this app instead i used almost all the apps paid & free but nothin works for note 2.... ive seen a vid on youtube in which they say 2 use DirectoryBind which seems 2 work....
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawdoctor:
I don't think there is an app that doesn't require root to move to sd card. I can highly recommend directory bind if you do choose to root though
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kremata:
If he ever decide to root the best app to move stuff to sd-card would definitely be Titanium backup.

Edit: Turns out there is not support for Apps to Sd-card in Titanium for the Note2 so forget this post.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Titanium does work to move application to sd on note2?

If I am not missing then it won't work on note2.

I am using directory bind and works perfect.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kremata:
Humm looks like you're right. I'm sorry for my wrong post and thanks for straighting things right.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3vo3d:
Directory bind worked perfectly for me.

Rooting the phone worked for me and solved a couple issues. Skygo won't work on a rooted phone though.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacGuru:
If you do end up rooting your device, there is also a great external2internalsd script and mod for note 2 which essentially allows your external sd card to serve as your internal memory. It works great with scripter in ROM Toolbox(free). Have been using it for the last 4-5 months without any problems and you can try it too instead of directory bind.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] percy5911:
im aware of this script but if i need 2 remove the memory card while the phone is on wont it affect the phone????
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SacGuru:
If you are concerned that your phone will crash or something, it won't, it will stay on as normal. However when you try to run some of the bigger games and all while the memory card is out you will get errors.

Why do you want to take out the memory card anyway? You can easily use a data cable to transfer data. Infact, running this script or not, it's always a good practice to not take out/physically move the memory cards you use in your device too much as it helps in avoiding any chance of corruption of data due to dust and scratches etc.

I just opened the box for my SX56 and plugged it into the wall to charge it and it makes a horrible chirping sound. And, every time I use the stylus it makes the same sound. It makes the same noise when I'm trying to hear the different ringtones and drowns out the sound of the ringtones. I can still hear them barely in the background behind the chirp.

PLEASE someone help me. I really don't want to send the device back to Siemens as I've also already downloaded the Special Edition ROM V1.2 :cry:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Confirming it was making this horrible chirping sound before you did the Special Edition ROM V1.2 upgrade?

If so it sounds like a defective unit to me!

If not try doing a hard reset and see if that will clear it up.

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
It was making it from the minute I powered it up. Even before the upgrade. If it is a defective unit, will the manufacturer give me a hard time about returning it with the upgraded Special Edition ROM?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Maybe, but just re-install the original ROM.

If you didn't make a backup you can download it from here:

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] cruisin-thru:
That chirping sound reminds me of when I wired up a tomtom gps power lead so I could use it on an xda, when I put the charger in the socket it started howling and chirping really loud which also affected the sound, this is a long shot but look at the base of your pda and check the pins where the charger go's in, you might have a short there, having said that it needs to go back to whence it came for exchange. Whatever made you update the bios when it was making that noise? Did you think it might effect a cure?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
Cruisin-thru,

you might ask that.....

1. I didn't know what was a normal sound or not since I had no experience with this PDA phone before.

2. I did read on the Siemens web site that there had been some sound issues with this phone. Their tech support suggested that updated drivers/ROM would be helpful and may sove the problem.

3. I didn't really have a choice.......
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
Qman,

I tried to reload the original ROM from the link you provided but I keep getting an error 012: something about being incompatible versions. Any idea what I should do next?

Shmi
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
You need to download and run AdaptROM.

AdaptROM can be found at:

http://xda-developers.com/adaptROM/

Place AdaptROM.exe in the C:/Programs Files/SX56 upgrade

utility folder.

Now go to DOS and run AdaptROM.exe from the C:/Programs Files/SX56 upgrade utility folder.

Now try upgrading again by running the upgrade.exe from the C:/Programs Files/SX56 upgrade utility folder.

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
Qman,

you were right on the money. I ran AdaptRom and then the upgrade and it worked perfectly. THANK YOU!!!

I sent the XDA off to Siemens today to fix the chirping problem. Kinda sucks that I only got it on Wednesday and I had to send it away already. Hopefully, they can fix the problem quickly.

Since I ran the Special Editiion ROM and it unlocked my phone, will it stay unlocked even after they fix whatever the problem with the sound is? Do I have to run it again? I tried to run XDAunlock.exe first but it didn't work - error getting unlock code.

Shmi
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
Glad to here it worked, most likely they will just exchange you phone so you'll have to run the Special Edition ROM again on the new phone.

HTH
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
I'll let you know when I get it back.

Thanx again.

chirping sound

Now the Siemens service center in Minnesota tells me that the touch screen is cracked and it's not a warranty item even tho the phone is less than a week old and I only had it in my possesion for less than 48 hours.

I wish I had never ordered the d____ thing!!

shmi
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Qman:
What! :shock:

How did the screen get cracked? :o
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] toxic:
hi,

Hmm, if it was defective when u got it, you have the right to a replacement or a refund. There should never have been a need to send it to siemens for repair. You could try to throw that at them, and ask them why ultimately your being penalised for a defective device which they sold you.

I would suspect that the screen was broken in transit.

You have a couple of choices:

1) ***** at siemens and when you get to a dead end do a chargeback on your credit card. You MUST give the seller a chance to fix things before your CC company will let u do that. (assuming you used a credit card to buy it) - Tell you CC company it was broken when u got it, and they are giving you rubbish about waranties not covering it.

2) Find out exactly what damage (they claim?) the device has and check if you have any insurance with the courier you used to transport it.

3) get them to fix the sound issue and pay for the display to be fixed, or just live with it (if it can still be used)

Usually argueing with these companies is based more on the person you get rather than what you say! Always remain calm and keep asking them questions on what they expect you to do. No one likes being badgered with questions!

If all else fails write a letter to their complaints department.. i usually copy in their PR department too and sign it from my company. (or use a friends).

Good luck!

cracked display

I sent the phone to them via Fedex overnight with tons of bubble wrap and a padded envelope!

I called the yahoo.com store, where it was purchased, and they are trying to pass the buck to siemens. I called siemens again and talked to a supervisor who was adamant that it was yahoo or Fedex's problem. I discreetly threatened to pull a deal that I am involved with at work for a $6,000,000 purchased of siemens medical equipment by xmas. They gave me the name of their director of wireless products and I sent him an email. Haven't heard back from him yet - lives in San Diego. I also told them that I would complain to Eric Reinhardt, CEO of Siemens Medical systems and someone I had dinner with about 2 weeks ago! THey suggested that I ask him to call Jim Fletcher, head of wireless.

Does it not seem ridiculous that they are giving me such a hard time over a $600 item when we are in the process of buying something worth more than 10000 times that!!! What does that say about the company and its support?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] toxic:
lol

tbh thats typical behaviour from many companies i deal with, even when indeed we are buying large qty's from them!

If you go through the normal customomer support/returns they really couldn't care less. When you get to someone who may actually care if they get the contract or not then its a completely different story.

As for passing the buck this is your real position:

You could have returned it to the yahoo store for a replacement. And it doesnt matter much what they say is true, they HAVE to replace it or refund the money. Now that they are aware that u reshiped it, and its been damanged (suposedly) you may have a problem. If they dont know about the damage its irrelevant that you sent it to siemens. It was STILL damaged when u got it.

Waranty should only come into play if it was broken AFTER you got it. Usually if it breaks within the first 2 weeks you can confidently argue that it may have 'apeared' to work, but obviously there was a fault somewhere which didnt become noticable right away.

Of course its completely up to you if u want to send it in for a waranty repair even tho it was broken when u got it, BUT you don't forfeit anything unless siemens have actually opened it or tried to repair it. You could probably get siemens to at least tell u that it was problably broken from the outset anyway.

If you do speak to siemens again, DO NOT conceed that it was probably damaged in transit. In fact tell them u packaged it so well, even more securely than how it was shipped to you in the original packaging. Also that you payed to have it couriered out of your own pocket.

basically ***** ***** *****, and don't threat too much or mention your 'big qty purchase' more than once.. if questioned on it say 'Well thats obviously a mute point with the service i'm getting here!'

I almost wish i could make the phone call for you, i love messing with these idiots when they try to play u for a fool.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
toxic,

I'm taking your advice and have made several phone calls today. The Siemens service center informed me today that they haven't even looked at the phone yet because they made a claim with Fedex and so Fedex now has my phone. Supposedly, they are determining whether they are going to pay for repairs or nor.

Anyway, I contacted someone pretty high up in Siemens Medical and they said that they would contact Jim Fletcher, top dog in Siemens wireless, and see if they can't replace my phone for me. Wish me luck.

Warning about the lying sneaks at the Siemens repair center

Qman and toxic,

remember when I said that the Siemens repair center (independent contractor and not Siemens employees) told me that the phone arrived with a crack? Well, they lied. They also lied to Siemens, Inc. about having fixed my phone.

They sent me the phone back as a "refused package" after they had it for more than 24 hours and after they had opened it. How Fedex could accept that back as refused is beyond me.

What actually happened is the monkey at their center that was opening the package with a box cutter, GOUGED the touch screen. We just examined the phone after taking it out of the padded envelope, loose, with no additional packaging, the way they sent it back. They didn't send any of the original packaging or bubble wrap or anything.

I called them about that and they said that that was the way it arrived but that the package had been unopened. You know they were lying because it's clearly a gouge caused by a box cutter when tyring to remove the 3" of bubble wrap and tape that had surrounded the phone. It's even discontinuous, like they put pressure and lightened up and applied pressure again. I wish I could post a picture on here for you but I don't know how. If you PM me, I'll send you a picture.

Anyway, they continued to lie about it and not take responsibility. They want me to file a claim with Fedex. So I called and *****ed until I got a supervisor at Siemens support and he "escalated" the problem until he got approval from Jim Fletcher to replace my phone.

So, now I'm waiting for my new phone to arrive.

Can you believe the audacity of that Maggie woman at the repair center? She is an expert liar. Anyway, I told Siemens about that whole interaction and that they should find some honest people to service their phones. The supervisor said that someone is going to be contacting the Repair Center and addressing the issue with them.

I'll let you know when my new phone arrives. Since it's coming directly from Siemens, I wonder if it'll be unlocked or not.........

well at least your getting a new phone, which is great!

This is exactly the kind of bad advertising they should actually care about.

Let us know when it arives.. i need some closure lol

toxic.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] shmi:
how do you take off the back?

Well, now it's a week later and my phone is back in my hands in the worse shape than a week ago, now with a new gouge in the screen. The good news is, everything still works great on it but the screeching problem is still present.

Any ideas on how I can repair this thing? How do I get the back off even after I have removed the four screws? Does it pry straight off or slide off or what? And if I do get it off, one of the tech support guys who heard the screeching over the phone said that he thought it was probably a loose cable going to the speaker making partial contact or shorting with something.

I'd like to give it a shot. I've got nothing to lose....... got any advice?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d3vils:
Hi guys,

I can't flash any ROM/Kernel/whatever file via Bootloader/ODIN & Recovery. Worst still I can't access Recovery now.

My Nexus can goto Bootloader or ODIN mode but once i started to push files to it, it will just freeze. Please refer below for photos:

BEFORE

AFTER

My Gnex was on the latest Paranoid ROM and Franco kernel.

Timeline:

1. It just went into bootloop when I am just browsing the internet.

2. Went to Recovery to clear cache. (that's my mistake, should have waited longer for my device to boot :crying:)

3. Still bootloop.

4. Went to recovery to flash stock kernel as I suspect it's kernel fault.

5. Kernel flash failed as it the operation was aborted and restarted. Bootloop again.

6. Done battery pull and went to Recovery to Restore my backup Nandroid.

7. Flashing halfway and it frooze.

8. Can't access Recovery anymore.

9. Tried to restore stock rom using ODIN. Failed at NandWrite as the screen froze as the above image.

10. Tried WugfFresh to restore back to stock rom and failed again as the screen froze.

So guys, can i conclude that my motherboard is the culprit here?

Thanks in advance.

Are you able to get into the bootloader? Have you tried manual fastboot flash of factory images?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d3vils:
Hi,

Yes, I am able to get to bootloader.. the problem is when i start to do fastboot flash the factory images (using WugFresh).. the screen will start to freeze with double image as per my 1st post...

:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmaag:
Sound like there is a possibility of corrupt nand partition .... though that is usually unlikely unless you are an extreme flashaholic ... but still possible

but the guy above is suggesting use the fastboot commands manually rather than using the toolkit as it sometimes makes a difference

As in manually flash the recovery in the bootloader then see if you can get into recovery, but there are many avenues that you can take to see where you can get with this. There are many places that explain how to do this step by step on the web.

Also you should always try switching usb ports and usb cables as sometimes it will cause issues

I know i used the same usb port with the same usb cable to flash my n7 and gnex multiple time then one day it just stopped working switched the port and cable then it started working again.

But other than that I don't know much about is a possible JTAG but I really doubt that will help at all since the device does does get into bootloader and odin just freezes....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d3vils:
corrupt nand partition... that's an interesting theory... will explore on the solutions on the manual fastboot commands...

thanks!!

I have several BT headphones and three Logitech BT receivers connected to active loud speakers. With my previous phones (Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung SII, HTC Desire HD) I could bridge distances up to 10 meters including in other rooms without problems

Whereas with my new HTC One in a distance more than 1 meter I get outages and with more than 3 meters the bluetooth connection is dropped at all. Maybe this has to do with the unibody in general or is just my phone not working as expected?

Do you have similar experiences?
