[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jongsoek:
hi,

I got a secondhand Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8000) with Android Honeycomb version a few days ago.

To upgrade android OS version from honeycomb to jellybean with official ROM,

I entered Odin mode and saw the product name was "GT-P7570".

Even if the product name shown on Odin mode was GT-P7570, I flashed the official ROM to my note 10.1,

because the model number displayed on the Note 10.1's "About device" menu was "GT-N8000".

Anyway. my secondary note 10.1 seems to be bricked. (dose not turn on, enter Odin mode, and see charging icon while charging with AC adapter.)

I heard that there are three types of brick mode ("hard brick", "soft brick", and "coma brick"), and I don't know what kind of brick my note 10.1 encountered. Are there any ways to fix my note 10.1 ?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You need to know what the product is first . Honeycomb is a very old OS .

A guess this is either not the Note or its been flashed with old Tab Firmware or other non Note/Tab firmware .

Yeah, and somebody may have altered the build.prop to make it Seem as if its a Note 10.1. Sounds like Sounds like You May have been cheated. Does your Tab have a Pen in the bottom right corner? If not its a galaxy tab 2 10.1...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pointmutation:
Sounds like a Galaxy Tab 10.1. Especially if it came with honeycomb.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
Yep, the Note 10.1 came Natively with ICS. Never had honeycomb. That was the previous generation of tabs...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jongsoek:
The seller said that the initial version sold in germany, (my second Note 10.1) has no S Pen slot.

At that time of purchase, the S Pen came with the note 10.1 separately.

When i search on the internet, in my case, there is no way to fix my Tap with software manner.

The only way for fixing is to change the mainboard of my TAP with extra charge :crying:

Should i call Samsung to fix my Tap or is there any other ideas?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
I'd take it back and demand my money back as it was sold under fraudulent circumstances. No note 10.1 was sold without spen, that was its main selling point. If it happened here in Oz, if it wasn't either replaced or refunded I'd go to dept of consumer affairs.

At the very least they can pay to get it fixed as you have tried to upgrade on the premise that it was a Galaxy Note 10.1, not the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1.

If you bought it privately there may be not much you can do but if its a store I'd be making sure I got my money back.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Samsung will probably charge more than your not a Note is worth .

But if you can identify the product it may be possible to recover .

Hi.

I bought a xperia v recently and now I want to install apps to the external memorycard.

I have found out that this is not possible without rooting my phone. right?

If I need to root my phone to be able to see the external sd-card I need some help.

- point me to a good and "safe" tutorial on how to root my phone.

I have no need for anything fancy and homebrewed except being able to use the external sd-card.

Please, help me out here so I can use my phone without constant messages about "move to internal memory......"

Thanks in advance.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gingi999:
So im a noob. I rooted my gs3 when i got it. I added the wifi button and mobile hotspot. Now i want to update my phone to the newest build. I froze kies and SDM to prevent any OTA updates so I wouldnt mess anything up or lose root.

Does skipping builds cause any issues?

Can I update in a way where I wont lose my info?

If that is not possible (saving info) How do I update without losing root? (can you point me to a video)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
Since there is no stock image for mb1 yet, you'll have to go to the lk3 build first. You can do so by flashing the stock lk3 image with Odin (you can find the files in development). From there you can take the ota. There may be images that allow you to keep root while going from LG1 to lk 3 but I'm not sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Surge1223:
If you already have root then I believe all you have to do is flash a 4.1.2 rom via custom recovery...I may be wrong though so double check the guides over in the gs3 development stickies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
He could do that but it would only update the system and data partitions. The other partitions and firmware will still be out of date and that could cause some potential problems, especially if its a jump from ICS to JB
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Surge1223:
What do you mean like radio, rpm and kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
Yes and any others. There are I think 12 or so partitions total, but I'm not smart enough to know what they do (except for the three or four that get backed up with a nandroid such as system and data)

Edit: better link showing a table of the 23 sg3 partitions and labeling their functions.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gc84245:
Are you asking how to go about installing the update, or are you asking if it's better than running whatever custom ROM you are currently using?

If you're asking whether it's better than the ROM you are currently running, that's a matter of opinion. Personally I have not tried the official Jelly Bean update, and I don't think I am going to. I like what I am using now (AOKP 4.2.2) and I don't like the T-Mobile bloatware. I know you can get rid of it, but why bother with the hassle if you have a ROM that you know works and you like?

No, it's not important that you install it. There are advantages and disadvantages to stock vs. custom. It's up to you. Do you like touchwiz or do you like "pure" Android better? Do you need Wifi calling?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.gründaumen:
Hi!

The automatic brightness on my Xperia Z behaves weird (altough I think it is a bug)

This is what happens:

I have the phone set to "adapt to light conditions" (automatic brightness)

Now when I slide the brightness slider, the brightness changes. But, depending on the setting of the slider, it will not go to full brightness or darkest on its own. When I turn off "adapt to light conditions", it becomes brighter or darker, depending on slider position. But it will never go to 100% on it's own, not even directly under a lamp. It also becomes a little brighter when I turn off automatic brightness and have the slider set to 100%.

Expected behaviour:

I turn on automatic brightness, and put the slider in a, let's say, 60% position. The phone goes to 2% brightness in a pitch dark room (when I read in bed) and switches to 100% when I'm outside in the bright sun. When it does not sense extreme conditions (e.g. sensor reading <20% ambient brightness or >80% respectively; then gradiently going to darkest or brightest gradiently, of course), it aims for the +-60% brightness I specified with the slider.

Conclusion: The slider is an overall threshold for screen brightness and it does not adjust in a 2-100% brightness range, but around maybe +-30% or so around the position the slider is set at. This sucks! ;)

This seems to clearly be a bug, and imho this contributed to the somewhat "not so impressed with the screen" reviews I read before I bought it. Because the screen is really very good if it is set to the correct brightness.

Thanks for the answers!

PS: When I enter the service menu with *#*#7378423#*#* and check the ambient light sensor, it gives me values between 0 and 1000 - so it does definitely work correctly. Build number is 10.1.A.1.350 - I know there is a newer one, but my phone is carrier branded (3 Austria, for that matter) and hasn't been updated yet, unfortunately. Can someone confirm that is is fixed in .434?

I dont think this is a bug. It's been like that on the t, tx, v since they were launched.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.gründaumen:
Really? This is almost a deal breaker for me :/ that is a really stupid behaviour, what do I need automatic brightness for if I have to change it myself anyway? I really don't want to care about this miniscule thing on a 600€ device - I expect it to adapt to all conditions.

I didn't want to root it or put a custom rom on it - Sony did a good job with the software as it is, except the automatic brightness.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gm007:
Sony phone has the best auto brightness

You can find on any phone.

You can say Samsung's auto brightness sucks but not Sony :p

In auto mode you have the choice to set the minimum brightness level you want and the level will go up depends on the lighting situation and sensor reading.

Yes it has some threshold limitations but it's very sufficient.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.gründaumen:
Sorry, but "best auto brightness" is not what would've come to my mind thinking about the xz ;) and I would never buy a Samsung plastic brick :P

I had a Nokia N9 previously (that I miss dearly, but the internal 3G antenna was broken so I had to replace it... still by far the best phone I ever owned) and it had exactly the auto brightness behaviour I expected - when I read in the dark, it when down to the lowest possible setting. And when I was in bright sunlight, it went to full brightness wihtout a delay or hassle. I could read it perfectly under any condition and never thought about the settings. The slider only indicated a preferred standard brightness - always had it at 60% and it was perfect.

I really don't understand why other manufacturers wouldn't do it exactly the same way? As I said before, why even have an auto brightness setting if I have to go to settings to adjust it anyway?!?! If I put the slider on 60% and auto brightness on, it burns my eyes in the dark and I can't read it in bright sunlight - I even have to adjust it when the sun shines through my windows at work?!?! WTF Sony?

For those of you who, like myself, have been dying to put our newly unlocked devices to use, I just thought I would share that I am currently running Vitreous 1.9.3 (rootwiki) as my one and only rom. I flashed it using twrp (hashcodes latest) after backing up my stock rom. I also flashed the gapps indicated for the rom. I was kind of expecting some problems, but it went every bit as easy in the real recovery as it did in SS. Anyway, I am hoping that some of the talented devs out there will build us a shiney new rom worthy of this new development, but for the time being, there is the only slightly less shiney Vitreous rom. Happy day!

[RAZR HD General] SquireSCA:
Same here. It looks nice but isn't ready for prime time yet. But to be fair, there isn't a single ROM out there yet that is as good as the stock Moto ROM. Not the devs fault, but with a locked bootloader and so few people having root all this time, this amazing phone has been largely passed over by the dev community, Simply wasn't worth their time.

That may change a little now that it is unlocked, but at this point the phone is several months old and devs are looking forward to the HTC One, SGS4, etc... So my fear is too little, too late.

There will be a small handful of half-baked ROMs for this phone and that's about it.

P/s: I was research and tested on my LT22i, running stock 6.1.1.B.1.75, Sliding XP 7.4 kernel.

If you want to use this button to turn off, just replace "FOCUS" by "POWER", but the focus function will LOST, thanks to ozz_y :)

*Supported phone:
