send it back...

You can send it back to Samsung Care since you still have a malfunctioning phone...

If you can, it would be better to go to their Service Centers to make sure that the phone is fixed. It should be fixed anyway when they sent it...

:confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
Thanks a lot for your replies. I went to Samsung service centre today, and they updated my phone's software somehow which has solved this problem. But the problem is back again. I left my phone for around 3 hours on my bed and when I came back it was switched off, I tried to switch it on & same problem again!! :(

send it back
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
As others said already, send it back. Saw a case like that here once before and the other guy couldn't solve it either. While you still have warranty they must repair it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
They keep updating the software. They are not making any changes to the hardware. I'm gonna go again tomorrow and report back what happens.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
I think what you have there is no software problem anymore (although I could be wrong) but as you said if it didn't help to flash a new Firmware I don't see how this can be related to software anymore. Must be some sort of hardware failure.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
I'm seriously fed up with this phone now. Tomorrow will be my 3rd visit!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:

Just sell it and get a Nexus 4 ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
Hahaha, but I love TouchWiz & I hate stock Android UI.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Wow you don`t here it often that someone loves the Stock TouchWiz design ^^

Most people here hate TouchWiz and love the Stock AOSP Android Design. I also use TouchWiz but it`s completely themed to match Google`s look of Android.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh_goyal93:
It's not the looks that matter to me, I want to make folder in the menu, and stock AOSP doesn't allow that, so that's why I use touchwiz. I have 100s of apps on my phone and I like to keep it well-organised. :)

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
guys, I need your help.

I bought a htc one x in september 2012, rogers canada.

i did a factory reset 5 months ago and it did not touch my SD card data. I upgraded to jelly bean and did another factory reset a few days ago, not expecting it would wipe my SD car, but it did.

I am guilty of not making a SD card backup, but I just didn't expect it to be wiped, cause it wasn't the first time i did the factory reset.

So now I am trying to do a data recovery, but my problem is the PC doesn't see the SD card as a drive anymore, and neither do any of the data recovery programs i am trying to use.

I couldn't find any data recovery app that runs from the phone, which would probably see the SD card and recover files.

Any clues on how to get my data (photos, pdfs, docs, music) back?

Thank you!

P.S. did I understend well that the SD card is not actually an SD card but an integrated whatever? Why would they call it an SD card then? stupid?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
Your pc won't see it as a usb device with 4.1.1 it will show as a one x in device manager and windows explorer
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
It still follows the secure digital standard so it is still an sd card regardless of being removable or not. It's not stupid for them to call it so as its well published that this device has no removable storage.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You did a factory reset from the bootloader, which corrupts the SD card.

I believe since its corrupted, the only way to fix it is to reformat. Once you do, your data is gone. Some folks might have other ideas. But I think this is what the answer was when the question came up before (not that long ago, maybe a week or 2 ago).

exad already answered the question about it being called an SD card. Plus, some apps access the SD for storing data, and the OS can move some app data to SD. So again, it behaves as an SD, just that its not removable. Calling it something else would be confusing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
yup, the win explorer sees it(but not as a drive...), but the other programs with which I am trying to recover data do not see it so i cannot recover.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
driver

I am trying to follow some steps and flash a recovery onto it to mount the sd card as a drive. I have a problem though, although i have installed the htc drivers to my computer, the adb still gives back device not found error(which should mean the driver is not properly installed and or it is a wrong driver) and i dont know enough about drivers and that stuff. can anyone maybe help which driver top install?

HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe is the one that doesn't help seemingly

thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Recovery programs won't read it, since its corrupted. You have to format it using Windows, which will make your data irrecoverable (I believe).

Mounting in recovery won't work either. It won't mount USB when its corrupted. You can still try it. But I don't think it will work.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
I hoped this would work, i found it on this forum, but i am stuck on the device not found (driver?) error.

What do you think? thanks redpoint73

quoted:

Solved

Thank you Redpoint for your thoughts. I hoped that I would find an easy reply to solve my problem but in the end this is what I knew I ultimately had to do.

Quick summary:

Unlocked Bootloader via HTC Dev.

Flashed Recovery, Team Win Recovery Project 2.4.1.0

Mounted SD as a drive via Recovery.

Ran RecoverMyFiles v5 and recovered the files that I lost.

Now to go ROM shopping and start again. This time I will listen to my own warning and keep a copy online.

end of quote
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
Redpoint, do you think there is any chance that the sd card is not corrupted? Because, I have 10 gigs available on the phone now, so I think the card is working. Maybe I don't understand the terminology used here... What exactly do u mean by corrupted? Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Essentially, it's not corrupt but if you try to recover the data it will have been corrupted when you factory reset in bootloader so the data will not be usable.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Basically, the data is still there, but the system can't find it because the "roadmap" if you will, has been erased. It's like trying to find a specific apartment in New York City with no map and no addresses marked on the buildings. The only way to do it is to visit every single address in town.

You've got an added problem here because this lost storage is located in an unformatted partition on an external device, which may mean your PC simply isn't going to see it without some sort of specialized software. To stretch the metaphor further, it's trying to visit every address in a town you don't know exists.

I think that recovering your data should be possible with the right recovery program, but its likely to be more trouble than it's worth, and it's certain that many of the files you recover still won't be usable anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
Thanks, my problem is, I think, that I cannot take the card out and put it in some kind of reader. My knowledge in regards ends here. If the pc still wouldn't see it, I don't know how would I solve the prob.

It just seems incredible nothing can be done to access this card for the recovery purposes, when it is accessed right now through the pc with no problem for storage purposes.

Any further advice will be highly appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
4.1 doesn't use the generic mass storage device driver. You can try mounting it through recovery, I believe that DOES use the generic mass storage device driver but I am not certain it will work. As stated previously, there's a very good chance whatever files you recover will not be working files anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
Any clues how to get past the adb error nor device found when trying to launch recovery? Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
You don't need adb to access recovery but if adb access is enabled on your phone, it should work. Do you have HTC sync running?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] salissimo:
I tried with sync running and without. Cannot go to recovery from bootloader nor through pc, it says no device founf error
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
-Try disconnecting everything, and powering off and restarting both phone and PC.

-Try using a different cable and USB port.

This seems to happen to a lot of people, and these often fix it.

Data Recovery

Try a Data-Recovery Program :laugh:

There are Free Data Recovery programs in the World but the best one is:

IsoBuster by Peter van Hoove

---------- Post added at 09:18 ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 ----------

Surely, yes, your PC needs Administrator rights and the SD-Card isn't a big Problem because the PC has full access to the file System (Mass Storage)

Newer Smartphones only offer MTP. You can't access the Filesystem so with MTP data recovery isn't possible.

...but only if the SD-Card is inserted in the Smartphone to the PC.

Use your PC's SD-Card Slot or Adapter.

...data Recovery from Internal Storages on Unrooted devices with locked bootloader is very hard and a big problem - even isoBuster is powerless then.

---------- Post added at 09:20 ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 ----------

...with ISOBUSTER maybe there is a chance.

IsoBuster has extremely high Recovery Rate.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mikesands:
Someone else posted that the standard issue items fall out of his ears. Mine too. and this is of course a problem when driving as you are constantly moving your head.

So I compared them with a good pair of Panasonic ones that don't fall out.

I think the problem is the width of the stem - it's at least twice as thick as the panasonic ones and therefore doesn't locate properly in the slot most of us have at the base of the earlobe. I think this is also why the sound is pretty crap compared to a good pair - they aren't close enough to the opening of the ear canal. If you apply very gentle pressure the improvement in bass is dramatic.

Anyway I also discovered that the mic/vol control/call switch thingy is a pop apart construction and anyone with some skill with a soldering iron ought to be able to solder a proper pair of buds in position. Unfortunately I don't have 'some skill with a soldering iron' so will have to find someone who does.

Why am I doing this I hear you ask ....'cos I'm peed off with blue tooth, in particular its mic pointing anywhere except where my voice is coming from. crappy mono sound ... no support for voice dialling, and constantly having to remember to charge up the bl**dy thing.

If I can get some decent buds on the standard kit, I'm then going to permanently remove the little rubber socket cover, work out a way of tidying the wires up (they seem to be made for someone with a head diameter the size of a very large beachball) .... then look for some way of activating the voice dialling via the two switches on the cable.

Hi All,

Just ran into a new (severe) problem. It began yesterday evening.

I was in the process of pairing my phone with my new bluetooth car stereo, and noticed it wasn't pairing properly (was doing phone or audio, but not both simultaneously).

Anyway I went to the internet via 3G to try to find issues with bluetooth, and then I noticed internet wasn't working at all.

I walk up to my apartment and then try WIFI, which also is not functioning at all (it's as if it's not connected - I just get "webpage not available" in the browser, and similar messages in every other app).

Note that the phone / sms still works fine.

I had made a nandroid a week and a half ago, went home and restored that. It fixed the problem; internet was working correctly again.

As of now, the problem has reappeared! Internet not working at all. Absolutely no idea what could be causing this issue (perhaps AFWall+? Was there an update?), has anyone else run into this before?

I do notice that when the phone reboots, it has internet initially right after booting but then shortly after stops working.

Hi Guys

I'm having trouble with my Wi-Fi on the Nexus 7 (No router problem, all other devices work fine!)

My router is a "Speedport W 723v Type B" (i don't think this information will help you though).

Please help me

Thanks :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fallon9111:
Can you try changing the router channel? It is possible the nexus 7 won't pick up some channels so well. Also, make sure you are using a reliable ROM, with a clean install. Even though it worked on your old router, a bug might stop it working on the new one so well.

If none of the above works, try backing up your tablet and performing a full wipe? But only as a last resort, wait to see what other people say first :)

This guy's guide helped me out quite a bit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OePkxGXsN0

You'll need to install the same HTC USB Modem driver for both the HTC Diag unknown devices (regular and 9k). If you install them in order, the second COM port will be the 9k one, and that is the port you want to use to connect. I got my SPC (i.e. MSL) using that and wrote the 56013 PRL to my phone successfully. It took a couple tries with the PRL as it always seems to do, but it worked the second time after I turned mobile data off on the phone. Just reboot after writing it, and it should be there.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] leerage:
Or just chat sprint. Just ask for the code ##xxxxxx# and they will give it to you (the x's being your MSL).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] parin11:
What if i am not using it on Sprint and want to use it on another network
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sim-X:
I have asked Sprint for MSL codes a bunch of times. Much easier than having to mess around trying to get it. Some reps are stupid & won't give it to you. Others will say they can't give you the code and then proceed to give you instructions to reset the phone which include the MSL. I asked my chat rep when I activated my one for it. Gave it to me immediately no fuss. If they are giving you a hard time, just say ok thanks and leave. Then just chat or call back it's pretty easy.

If a rep is giving you a hard time, just say you are hard resetting the phone & you need the ##786 reset code which is the MSL (just don't say MSL to the rep). Just depends on who & how you pitch it to the rep. I'm just not afraid to flat out ask for it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rockstarbrad04:
I know this will sounds retarded but can you break that down a little bit on how you got it? I really wanna do this but was a little confused by the directions. Thanks in advance.

Step 1: Open links for both the CDMADevTerm and the Drivers posted in the Youtube video.

Step 2: Download the CDMADevTerm (v2.85 methinks) and the HTC Diag Drivers in those links and extract them somewhere.

Step 3: Follow instructions in the Youtube video.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rockstarbrad04:
ok, I think I got it now. I actually dont have the htc one active on my account now so I dont think its showing correct spc its a bunch of 0's

Did this remove the simlock for you?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] kelmelzer:
Try the other COM port if getting all 0's. I didn't try to mess with the simlock. I am shying away of screwing around too much due to the bricking risk, so the most I did with it was writing a new PRL.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rockstarbrad04:
what exactly is the PRL? Sorry for the noob questions.

---------- Post added at 03:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

it said Spc accepted! So does that mean i'm unlocked now? and if so how can I test it?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] kelmelzer:
That means you're free to write PRL. It doesn't mean the SIM is unlocked. PRL is preferred roaming list. Find the thread called "Every Sprint PRL" for all of the info you need. The SPC = MSL though, so you can use that in your EPST menu as well (##DATA#).
