[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Playdoe:
Hey guys. I'd really appreciate your help. So this is how the story goes. Im pretty well versed in flashing ROMS. I flashed the CM10 Rom, don't remember the exact name, but it's the one where u can download a bunch of themes. Anyway the wifi kept coming on and off so I decided to try another ROM. I went into recovery mode and flashed the MIUI vs OTTER ROM, I think thats the name, I'm pretty sure . Just as the flashing finishes the phone turns off and BAM!! The problems start so basically phone wont come on now. I don't get the vibration before it starts, so I figured Id root back to stock and start all over...(Odin..PIT etc.) So this is what happens. The computer makes the noise that indicates something's been plugged in and then immediately it makes the same noise as if somethings been unplugged (phone is still plugged in though) Screen is completely blank still and a message comes up (ON PC) to install new software on ( the phone). The software or Device that registers as the phone in device manager is Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM. Any help would be appreciated. And yes I did the whole wipe factory/dalvik etc. right before flashing the MIUI ROM. The computer says I need to flash drive F to be able to use it (which I figure is the phone, and flashing would erase everything right?) but as I try to do that it denies me permission because th phone is apparently coming in and out, or on and off.

Have you tried a jig? Do a quick Google search "Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G Jig" . It'll get you into download mode and allow you to flash through Odin back to stock, I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Have you tried pulling the battery and entering recovery again?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Playdoe:
So this "jig" thing...is it something I buy or a program i download? After i googled it I got a few hits selling a small usb looking item and some videos for you tube describing how to make one...so which my friend are u talking about?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Playdoe:
I've tried everything including:

Taking battery out for extended periods.

Trying to hold volume up button and power/vice versa with both and volume down, whilst running odin to see if Added" pops up on odin so that I can root to stock and start over."

Every time i plug the phone into PC you hear the plug and unplu sounds as if the phone is continuesly turning off and on but nothing on the screen. Im not even getting the vibration.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] rygran87:
I had a similar issue on my phone recently. It was incredibly frustrating so I just left it on the charger. When I came back 30 minutes later, it was on and charging.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jserrano56:
Either you can buy one or make it yourself, but I highly recommend you buy one.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] tomy1986.nt:
I think it is hard bricked.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] xWolf13:
Did you try download mode? I thought mine was hard-bricked, but I was able to go into download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] WackyJoe:
Wow, same thing here!

I have almost the EXACT same problem. BUT, I do have a jig that I know that works...and it doesn't bring me to Download Mode. :crying:

No button combos work...download or recovery, I don't even know if it is charging...had it on the charger for about 30 mins so far.

(It says exactly:

You need to format the disk in drive G: before you can use it.

Do you want to format it?

<Format disk> <Cancel>

I of course press cancel

With a battery or without a battery, when I connect to the computer it installs the drivers as stated above but it continues to ask if I want to format it. If I leave it plugged up, the popup continues almost endlessly. I've not yet press FORMAT, as I would think that could make it worse than it is.

Has anyone seen this type of problem? :confused:

*EDIT: I'm sending it out on Monday to get it JTAGed, too expense and complex to even think about trying to get a box and attempting the fix myself.

I was basically told that the Boot portion (whatever it's exactly called) needs to be re-written and then probably just flash stock firmware on it.

Just wanted to leave this here to help others search and find this info...just in case they attempt to try to do more than they should and really mess their phone up even more.

Anyone else get TEP added automatically for your ONE. I just noticed that I have it and all I did was chat with a rep to activate my line.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] joefx13:
I did. I had went into the store and didn't find out till today.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkendvoid88:
Possibly doing it to increase their attachment numbers. Attachments such as the international package or TEP are counted metrics for us preferred retailers but idk if the same applies to corporate. At least in my store we'd never apply anything that would increase your bill without you asking for it or us confirming you want it.

Just noticed I have it too, kinda pissed about it. I have never had any insurance on a phone and I don't need or want it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
She asked if I wanted it.. But other times they just added it with out asking.. I go online and remove it as soon as I get home. Then I call customer service and tell them it was added with out asking and they usually waive the activation fee for me.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Marc5000:
As a Sprint sales associate & technician, I can tell you TEP is not required for any phone. I always suggest it (and have it on my own line) because I see a lot of people that get screwed without it. At least for the first couple months of having the phone. TEP can only be added at the time of purchase (or within 30 days but they don't usually tell you that), but you can remove it at any time with no hassle.

Regardless, that wasn't cool to add that on without your permission. Always look at the contract when they print it out in the store and see if everything is correct. Unfortunately, you can't really do that over the phone. In Sprint's defense, it's not a Sprint thing to just add it to your account, we're all individuals like yourself working for the company and how honest we are in what we do is directly linked to the person. We're not all like that. ;)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] donjuan81:
So my wife has an LG G2X on stock android 2.3.4 and she complains that after a while it will move so slowly that it is almost unusable. I have told her to restart the phone whenever that happens and she is having to do that about once a week, but that clears up the problem for a while. Aside from that, everything works as it should. It is using the march 2012 baseband.

Since it is not my phone, I do not know exactly what all she is doing on her phone, but I assume it is mostly facebook, watching videos, texting, and calls. I'm looking for a stable ROM where everything works like stock and has at least the same (if not better) battery life as stock.

And yes, I have searched but a lot of the info seems outdated. I am thinking that I might just run a rooted stock ROM with a custom kernel (leaning towards faux's here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102720 )... or maybe the stable cm-7.2.0-p999

summary: wife's G2X becomes VERY laggy after ~1 week use, suggest a fix

thanks :good:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
Having to restart once a week is not problem, if anything that's a good thing lol. I had to restart my stock unrooted g2x multiple times a week.......if you move to a custom rom your wife will probably have to restart about the same if not more. I'm on cm7 and i restart about once a day just because i like to, not out of necessity. If your wife isn't huge into customization than a stock rooted rom will work just fine. Faux makes a great kernel but it was a little harsher on battery for my liking. I'm running Trinity oc right now and love it. If i were you, i would look at mazouts latest kernel build. He makes AWESOME kernels and ill be moving over to his latest release whenever it comes out tonight or tomorrow.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] donjuan81:
i had her on a cm7 build with her previous phone (motorola defy) and she seemed to like it OK. didn't customize it too much, just used all the default settings.

after i posted this thread, i actually started to look at, and downloaded mazout's kernel... so now i'm thinking of trying out the 3/1 "nightly" build of cm7 with mazout's 0323 kernel. i can't seem to find a known bugs list for cm7 on this phone. are there any known bugs?

does this build of cm7 have a "restart" option in the power menu? that is one of my pet peeves with the stock ROM. the only way i have found to restart the phone is to "power off" and then "power on". i think she would be more willing to restart the phone if it was an automated restart
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
Yes there is aa "reboot" option that comes up from holding the power button. Maz's 0323oc kernel is awesome. I wouldn't put the Max over 1015 and keep the minimum at 216. Known bugs.....for me the only bug i had was the phone would heat up pretty bad overnight while charging. It was instantly fixed by going into my development settings under applications and selecting the "keep awake" option while charging.

Is her g2x already rooted?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spawne32:
ive actually been having surprisingly good luck running hellfire rom compared to when i was running CM7, its been stable for almost a week now, battery life isnt as good, but much better then stock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
Whaaaat? Hellfire is tweaked out isn't it? Looks like a badass looking rom, just too comfortable with vanilla cm7

This is a link to BuRom. Its a slightly modded 2.3.4 stock ROM. Just throwing it out there as another option.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mansa_noob:
If you want to stay with stock just root it and install an app to give yourself access to either full reboot or a quick warm reboot from the home screen.

Rebooting is a necessary evil :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] donjuan81:
now there's an idea. i didn't think about that. do you know of any of those types of apps that you could suggest?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
I have the app Reboot Scheduler. It reboots my phone at 5 am so in the morning it's nice and fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mansa_noob:
Just search for reboot in play store.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] donjuan81:
threw "fast reboot" on there to see how she likes it since it doesn't require root, works more like an app killer, but kills all in one press.

now, would i see any noticeable gains by using a custom kernel (stock voltage, no overclock)?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
Yes, not an extreme amount but a definite yes. I know by experience with CM7 that mazout's stock voltage beta kernel was much better than the stock CM7 kernel. Those kernels are only for CM7 though. I do not have any experience with an upgraded kernel on my g2x while it was stock as I flashed CM7 and mazouts kernel right after.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spawne32:
Went 1 day 8 hours down to 30% yesterday, unbelievable. lol Here i am today, over 14 hours already.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
What ROM are you using now, hellfire still?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spawne32:
yah hellfire phoenix 2.4.2, comes with faux123 kernel from cm7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pain-N-Panic:
Faux makes good kernels.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] christopherrrg:
^ those stats are kind of irrelevant considering he's asking for a decent play out on battery while using performance. [All around use.] You just showed us what a phone with no data signals and almost no use other then the odd screen wake [possibly texts/calls] the op explained he needed a ROM that takes minimal battery with most use, and being a girl I would imagine she's using social networking which requires WiFi or 3G/4G Please don't take what I'm saying as offensive, your information is very handy however it steers the op in the wrong direction as I'm sure his wife likes to use her phone as much as possible without being stuck to a charger. My girlfriend is currently using my old g2x and so far we've had the best luck with cm7 stable and the trinity kernel with slight under volt. What I would suggest the op do is maybe take a little research nightly on her battery drain, find out what she's using the most and go from there. Unfortunately because its not HIS phone, he's not going to witness distinction first hand and won't be able come to a easy conclusion, and it doesn't help that the g2x devs are stuck on GB, too many ports to keep interest and the search could take forever.

LETS KEEP PRAYING TMOBILE HASNT FORGOT US!

PS spawne32, when you did have your phone like the picture did that include battery apps or task killers? Or just straight up OS? Whenever I tried the ROM you suggested [it has been a while, maybe since updated.] I get screen wake issues and all kinds of battery drain.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] christopherrrg:
To the op, also recommend to your wife the app called "screen filter" it has an option to lower the key brightness, there are a few of those apps out there but I only remember using that, one of the g2x sad but true battery drainers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dovesong:
Similar issue - frequent reboots - please suggest ROMs, kernels, other solutions!

I have an LG Optimus G2X (P-999) running the original, unrooted, stock OS (android 2.3.4 "gingerbread", with the "old" bootloader and the baseband from March 2012).

Similar to the OP's wife's phone, mine is running slower and slower, frequently locks up, sometimes so badly that I need to remove the battery to restart it, and sometimes it just restarts itself. I've already tried uninstalling unused apps, clearing caches, moving apps to the SD card, etc. None of that seemed to noticeably help, and lately I need to restart it at least once every 24 hours.

(There are other annoyances too, like the way the GPS hangs and drops, and the battery life isn't great - although the battery may just be too old.)

I'm planning to root it and uninstall the bloatware as a first step, using the instructions I found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1050534

Then, I'm considering installing a custom ROM and/or kernel. (Most up-to-date list, I believe, is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975934 )

Given the problems I'm having, do you think one or both will help? (If yes, do you have any specific recommendations for a ROM and/or kernel, or tips, or possible pitfalls I should avoid?) Are there other ideas I should consider?

Thanks in advance!

Hi. I will do that tomorrow (I already tried device drivers included on flashtool).

My question: I installed CM on the device, and now I dont have 3G network working.

By having CM, is there any possibility of this is the root cause of not recognizing the device?

Can I flash radio fw or something like that? Or I have to revert to stock completelly?

Can I flash stock with clockwork?
