how easily stained does it actually get? for you at least? Having a glossy back on the arc, I rarely, if ever, find it dirty :confused:

I had an Arc S white glossy backing. It doesn't stain much but it sure does get stained. As for the V, it doesn't get stain easily as the Arc S. I have both black and white but I'm using the black one.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhodesfreak:
Hi,

I´m looking for a dock compatible with the original Nexus 4 bumper, actually my Philips Fidelio AS111 alarm clock dock is useless due to the thickness of the bumper in the micro usb connector area, therefore i'm looking for a dock that works with the bumper.I really don´t want to remove the bumper everytime I need to charge the phone.

I used the search function and looked through many posts of this forum without finding any useful information regarding a dock working with the bumper.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Hello everyone a few weeks back I had unlocked and flashed a custom rom on my phone Pacman V.14 or so

everything went well and scince then the phone worked flawlessly

Yesterday my signal on my phone went blank I had no signal at all it was roaming everywhere clearly it was a antenna problem as the phone was not on airplane mode. I decided to reboot the phone to see if that would fix it well... now when it turns on it just gets to the htc screen and it shuts off and restarts and it just loops endlessly

I said ok no problem Ill just relock the loader fastboot flash boot.img and recovery.img from a RUU then run the RUU

the RUU recovery was successful and when It reboot I had the same problem now I dont know what to do

the phone is screwed right?

[General Questions and Answers] johngoodin:
I've seen some general discussion on earlier ZEKI tablets but nothing in the searches for the new ZEKI TBD1038B 10" just released.

To me the Bootloader seems to be locked. Pressing and holding down the Volume- button while pressing the power button seems to do nothing at all.

Posts I've read claims ZEKI tablets come Pre-Rooted. If that's so then why does the tablet say I need root access then I try turning on the Firewall feature in AVAST?

I'd love to get ROM Manager up and running on this system but as before CWR says I need root access.

Can I safely install GAPPS on the tablet without root access without bricking it? If I had CWR making backups I wouldn't fear making changes.

I'm fairly into installing custom roms and GAPPS. My other tablet is a Nook Color fully running CM v7.2 stable and GAPPS.

===========================

Basically I would like to get this tablet first fully rooted so I could do full backups of the Factory ROM to the SDCARD and then save those backups to my laptop for safe keeping. Then and only then I'll get around to installing GAPPS.

This tablet says it has Android Jelly Bean v4.1.1 installed. Some posts I've read says 4.1.1 is full of bugs. Is that so. I'll update to v4.1.2 if at all possible.
[General Questions and Answers] alex_is_the_1:
Try installing superuser then grant the app your using root access. One way is to use say astro to make a backup file of an installed superuser apk on a phone put it on an SD card then put that SD card into the tablet then install superuser apk directly from SD card.

Hi, I wanted to flash Slim Bean 4.2.2 ROM but I want to keep the stock samsung apps that came with the phone, is it possible to install them somehow? If not all then could you please tell me what ones I can install?

Thanks in advance,

Nik
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
you can extract the apps apk files from your nandroid tar backups of your original samsung rom, then try installing some of them.

make a full nandroid backup of your current stock rom first. make a full nandroid backup of your slim rom before trying to install old stock apps.

some of the apps have no odex component and are compatible with JB 4.2.. those are the ones you can install.

I run stock quick office, for example.

you can find some of the apps in the captivate themes and apps forum.

be careful about installing any system apps that will overwrite a newer version on you current rom, e.g., camera, email, contacts, etc. this is not a good idea.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Ok thanks. Will have a look.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
I had tried to update my phone via Kies and the computer blue screened. Now the phone is stuck on the ODIN Mode screen with a picture of my phone on the left, a yellow triangle in the middle, and a computer on the right. Taking the battery out does nothing, restarting does nothing, restarting while holding down the volume buttons does nothing. No matter what, it always comes back to this screen.

When I plug the device into my windows based PC and open ODIN, ODIN does not see my phone. When I plug it into my linux computer and run lsusb, it does not list my phone in the output, so the computer definitely isn't recognizing that my phone is plugged in. A couple of weeks ago, I had this problem while trying to back up the phone, so I'm not sure if it's related to the botched upgrade or not.

Does anyone have any tips or advice here? I'd really love to be able to use my phone again. I am using the cable that came with the phone. I have the same results with other cables, as well....

I'm happy to provide more information if needed. Just tell me what you need to know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
That screen is a form of download mode. You should be able to flash stock or stock plus root from there.

If this statement reflects what you actually did, then it suggests the wrong order. You must first open oden on the desktop, and then connect the phone to the computer in download mode.

Try that first.

Next you could try putting the phone into download mode with the battery pulled out. Open Odin on the desktop, then with the battery out, hold down the vol- button while plugging in the usb cable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
Thanks for your response.

So I went ahead and cleared out everything and then reinstalled the USB drivers. Opened ODIN, connected USB to computer, took battery out of phone, put battery back in, held down volume buttons and inserted the cord. The screen immediately loaded up the one I spoke of in my first post. Odin still did not recognize that I had my phone plugged in.

So then I installed Kies and went to the firmware restoration item under the tools menu. Entered my model and serial number and put my phone into recovery mode according to the instructions there, but the "Start Upgrade" button was grayed out and never became clickable.

One thing I did notice while doing this (On yet another new computer) is that when I plug in the phone, I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" error in Windows. I'm not sure if this is a result of it being in download mode or not, but I thought it worth mentioning. I did attempt to blow out my mini USB on the phone for good measure, but had the same result, even with another cord.

Have u tried using a Jig to get ur phone into download mode ??

(See my signature link below. There r links there on how to make a jig and/or where to buy one)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Rushaan™:
First of all make sure that your PC isnt running Kies in the background - Use Tsk Manager to kill Kies process

Then Plug In your Phone

Enter Download Mode by holding both volume buttons and powerbutton till the Boot Screen Appears.Let the power button go when you see the boot screen but keep holding the volume buttons.

In no time you'll be in Download mode

Then go to odin and check if your computer recognises it. Odin willl show you (Com:x) X - Any Number

Then you can easily flash stock rom or a custom recovery..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
I have already made sure Kies is not running (And have tried this on a computer without Kies installed) and according to creepyncrawly in the second post here, the screen that I'm seeing IS download mode.

Again, according to creepyncrawly, this screen is a form of download mode. I am IN download mode already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fiffan86:
I tried everything you did, and the only way I got Odin to recognize my phone was use a USB jig to get it into the download mode other people are talking about
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
I'm definitely open to making one, but I'm confused since everything I'm reading says that the screen I described IS download mode, just with a different screen. Are you saying that you had the exact same situation as me and a Jig fixed it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You could order one fairly inexpensive. But order it or make it still takes some time. But as several have mentioned, it may help.

Did you try forcing download mode with the battery out as I suggested in the second post?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
Yes, I have tried forcing download mode by taking the battery out, holding down Vol and inserting it again. These are also the instructions that Kies gives, but it didn't work there either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fiffan86:
My phones update failed and I got the same phone, triangle, computer. I tried different USBs, different USB ports, different computers, tried Odin, nothing worked. As soon as I found my USB jig that was lying around, and plugged it in before I put in the battery, and the regular download mode which I am used to seeing showed up. ODIN recognized the phone and I flashed back to stock ICS rooted I downloaded from XDA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
Good enough for me. I'll give that a shot tomorrow.

Thanks for your help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
That's different that what I suggested. Remove the battery and leave it out. If you have to, sit on it so you won't be tempted to put it back in, lol. While holding vol down button, plug in the usb cable. The usb will supply the power. The phone should boot into download mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Special_Kev:
I guess I misread that. I blame it on my stressful week ending with no phone :confused:

So I just did that and boom, download mode as I would expect loaded up first time, no issues after I held down both Volume buttons while plugging it in (Holding down just Vol - didn't do anything). Unfortunately, it still did not show up in Odin (Kies background processes were all killed and USB driver IS installed on this computer and Odin WAS open before I plugged the phone in)

So I unplugged, opened Kies, and was going to try a restore through there since I could finally get download mode working properly. Except when I tried it this time, nothing happened. I held down the vol buttons, plugged it in, got a single vibrate, but nothing showed up on the screen. Unplugged, put the battery in, and it turned on and screen worked. Took out the battery and just plugged it in and the screen worked after vibrating 6 short pulses (It pulled up the screen mentioned in my first post). Unplugged, held down vol buttons and plugged it in, same thing. Blank screen.

Now I'm really at a loss. I'm starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my USB port on the phone itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] personalsydic:
hey i think that i have got a solution for your problem because it also happened with me in my galaxy y and then i did this thing = :fingers-crossed: see i firstly opened odin in the desktop and then take out the battery so once the battery is out connect the usb to the phone and go onto download mode without the baterry then u'll notice in odin that ur phone is connected and then add the battery back and u r done hope it works :fingers-crossed:

ODIN doesn't detect my Samsung Galaxy ACE

Hi there,

i have same problem with my Galaxy ACE GT-S5839i: i can't get ODIN to detect my phone. Originally, i tried to flash my phone and made a mistake in the process (installed a ROM before i installed CWM). This caused my phone to stop booting. The only thing remaining working is the download mode. But i can't get ODIN to detect. I tried 2 PCs, different USB ports; i tried to install Kies, or just the drivers... nothing makes ODIN detect my phone... :( I hear my PCs detects the phone when in download mode (it bips) and my PCs both recognized my phone (Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device). On PC uses windows 7 and the other Windows Vista. I ran ODIN v4.38 on both... Would be grateful for any idea what to do...

Hi eveybody

Pretty new at this so please excuse me if I sound toooo much like a noobie

I have S2 727r from rogers witch I rooted successfully with the the win team recovery but decided to go back to a stock rom and flashed with odin to get GB but for some reason it failed near the end of flashing and now I get the computer- triangle-computer icon on the screen when I power up the phone. On top of that Odin now doesn't recognize my phone ( I tried a few computers with different usb plugs and it still doesn't work). I'm unable to go into recovery mode only the computers and triangle screen which I read that it may still be a download screen....or maybe it's not...:confused:

I was thinking I may need to try to buy a usb jig if that helps the odin/computers to recognize the phone

Similar Issue

Hi guys,

I am experiencing an issue similar to the creator of the thread. My phone has not been rooted and I have never even made an attempt at doing so on this device. After a regular power down it decided to start boot looping. I am not able to do a hard reset whatsoever, after first turning on the device will show a charging battery symbol, sit there for a moment and then restart. Any attempt to get into recovery mode is absolutely useless, the process just repeats. The only thing I can do is hold Volume down on bootup and it starts me in Odin mode. The screen says Odin Mode in the upper corner along with my device info, then has the android logo with "Downloading..." "Do not turn off target!" written under it. Unfortunately no version of Odin I can find will recognize the device. After some fooling around I found a specific order of booting on usb, inserting battery, and button pressing that allows me to bypass the boot loop and actually boot into the OS. Using the reset from within android does not end up helping any, and if I ever power down the device it goes back into a boot loop again. Under no circumstances (in android itself, or in Odin have I gotten my win7 machines to recognize that I had a SGH-i777 connected, usually it says drivers for the device failed to install even after getting the latest set from Samsung. If anyone has any experience or ideas on where a novice can turn from this point it would be greatly appreciated. Prior to the boot looping that started approximately 24 hours ago I have never had a problem with the device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
It is possible that the phone is experiencing some kind of hardware failure, but neither I, nor probably anyone else here, would be willing to state that unequivocably. Since you can boot into the system, and download mode, but Odin will not recognize the phone, the first thing to suspect is a faulty connection between the phone and the pc. It could be the pc, the cable, or the usb port in the phone. So, try another known good cable, try different usb ports on the pc, try another pc, etc. If you can get Odin to recognize the phone then you should flash back to stock. UCMD8 would be the best choice. Odin3 v1.85 is the recommended version of Odin for this phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Aweake:
I am also unwilling to lean towards hardware failure but my issue seems to get more and more confusing the more I poke around lol. I tried 3 different cables and 3 different machines but every time the machines simply refuse to install the drivers necessary for the device to work. Without the drivers installed neither Kies nor Odin recognize the device. After some uninstalling an reinstalling of drivers multiple times I got pc to realize it was a phone. Odin saw the device and with the help of "Odin3 One-click Downloader I-777 UCKH7 Stock No Bootloaders" found in creepyncrawly's sig I started the flashing operation. 75% of the way through Odin failed and the phone now instantly boots to "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue." I can still reach Odin but like before any pc's I attempt to connect this to fail to find the proper drivers and it remains a "Uknown Device" in device manager. Has anyone encountered and successfully resolved driver issues like this before? I feel as if I could very quickly get this fixed if I could get the damn phone to be detected. As mentioned in the previous post I have tried every port on each of the machines and have made absolutely sure it is not connected through a hub. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I am lost.
