[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Aldreth:
Usually they do a 2x short vibrate with the battery out. I had my D710 flake on me after overcharging once and come back after a week and a fresh battery. Replace the battery, then test. If no go, try to vet the new battery to ensure its a gold one and pack your phone in a rice bag for a week and repeat.

It would be very surprising if its truly bricked. If all else FSA and testing has been thorough, wrote a detailed letter to Sammy regardless of warranty status and see if they will back it. If you get rejectee call and don't mention prior attempt at begging. If you are well spoken and have thoroughly ensured its just a random failure you might be pleasantly surprised by their willingness to investigate.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Spudnubs:
I'll go get a new battery now and see if that works, thanks for the reply. Also it didnt get wet or anything. I took my pants off in my room and there it sat in my pocket till I got back.

Also if it were the battery wouldn't it still at least show that splash screen when you attach a usb cable?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Tecardo:
What also helps is charging the phone on an apple charger. But charge it 3 days.

Apple charger: it will not load with full power.

I assume that the battery is below 2V.

And then nothing is displayed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Spudnubs:
So it wasn't bricked it just had some water damage I guess. Thanks for all the help everyone :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oZo:
I bought a used TF300T, 16GB

Unlocked

It has TWRP 2.4.4.0, JB 4.2 bootloader, and EnergyROM 3/28 10.6.1.8

Kernel 3.1.10-g59bc3cb

I was wondering if I should leave it alone, or restore it to factory. Is that even possible?

If I keep it as it is, how do I update?

I knew I should have bought a virgin Asus, lol.

Thanks for any info!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
You can restore it to factory by flashing a stock Asus blob in recovery (I recommend using the 10.6.1.8 ROM since that was the last one on your tablet). It will wipe all data, including whatever's on the internal storage. Once you get that set up, flash the OTA updates incrementally to avoid issues (there are only two updates to flash). You just have to download them (one at a time) and put them in /sdcard/ (that's where you start upon opening the file manager) -- be sure to unzip the downloaded file once, so you end up with another zip, and don't unzip that one. Reboot, and the tablet should notify you of an update. Repeat for the second update, and you should be exactly where you want to be.

All the blobs you need should be on Asus' website. If you need more help, there are lots of "how to flash back to stock" threads with instructions. Just read carefully, and if you decide to flash a custom recovery when you're done, DO NOT flash one with "-JB" at the end of it or you could brick your tablet. You will need a recovery that ends in "-42". Be absolutely sure, because there are 3 different bootloaders for the TF300, and flashing one from either of the other bootloaders will brick your tablet.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oZo:
That isn't doing anything. Is it because I have TWRP? Should I flash from TWRP?

Oh, I couldn't find the exact restore thread for my tablet

Perhaps you could point me?

Thanks again!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
That part of the instructions requires the stock recovery, which you should have if you flashed the stock blob as per the first sentence.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oZo:
Okay, I will try again. Maybe three times the charm. Thanks!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EndlessDissent:
You've flashed the stock blob in TWRP twice already? You're not flashing TWRP afterwards, are you? I've flashed a stock blob in TWRP, and I had the stock recovery afterwards. Are you rebooting into Android after you flash it?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oZo:
I tried to flash, it failed....BUT this time it worked (??!!) lol.

Obviously I wasn't doing something right, but I have now. I installed 10.6.1.8, now on to the next in the normal manner.

Thanks again!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highaltitude:
Can anyone verify the difference in frequencies that each phone is capable of? I am here in the USA on AT&T and last year bought a GT-I9305 and found out I could not get high speed 3G coverage. So I bought a GT-I9300 and everything works fine. Out of all the frequencies I needed 1900mhz for HSPA 3G. I am suspecting these models to be similar.

If you dial this code number *#197328640# into your phone dial pad you can get to a hidden service menu. (note: use the lower left button to go back each time you select something, otherwise you have to dial the whole number again.)

On my International SGS3 (GT-i9300) I can go in here and select different data frequencies (I leave mine on Auto) by going to Debug Screen-> Phone Control-> Network Control-> Band Selection-> then when you select one of the options, there with be a * next to each frequency that the phone is capable of. Just looking to see which version has what frequencies. Thanks!

** Thanks, this is a code to get into the menu that tells you what you are on, then you can use the lower left button and select back to get back to Phone Control-> Network Control-> Band Selection->:

Hi guys, I'm running a GT-i9500 on Bell mobility in Canada which uses same bands as AT&T. It is set to WCDMA 1900 Band 2, but the phone reverts to 3G at rest and goes up to H+ as soon as anything that requires data is launched. Is this normal behavior? I get great HSPA+ speeds too!

s4 gt-i9505 help?

I bought an unlocked China made gt-i9505. I'm in desperate need of help. The phone is missing several features like air gestures and smart scroll ect... Top it off I can't seem to root I cannot him it to computer... The computer recognized the s4 as an HTC dream interface.... Plus my imei number registers as an s3... I gave a straight talk tmobile sim and all frequencies for my location, service provider and phone capabilities are compatible with 3g/4g/lte yet all I can ever get is edge.... If anyone can help me possibly adjust settings or improve apn or even root this odd phone I'd be forever grateful.

S4 I9505

I saw a coworker's S4 and with the 2600 ma battery I ordered up a S4 I9505 & should arrive today.

I'm in a 4G LTE area so wanted the AT&T version.

Hopefully not a fake.

If so, back to Amazon & will wait for the Google sale later this month.

I run Apex as my UI but am looking forward to some of the Galaxy apps.

I suspect I'll be deleting a bunch both to free up space and save on the battery.

My daily phone has been the Vivid for a while and I'm getting tired & so is it.

Hopefully with a few tweaks I can go more that a day w/o having to charge.

s4 gt-i9505 help?

I'm sure it's a gt-i9505. Clone it just a custom build I guess. It has custom build number a host name from Hong Kong... I can provide any info from my phone via this forum, screen shots (if possible) or email. I'd just really like help with the development stuff. I have done lots or research posting here is a last resort. I really want to root it. But it will not sync to samsung Kies or a pamphlet only hope I think will be terminal emulator on my phone. But I'm not familiar with the processes and commands. I can't use most system codes but I have accessed the engineering mode. Clueless on what to do. I just weak my to be able to tweak the phone and possibly make it semi normal. If anyone has the gt-i9505 international unlocked from China I'd like to know the specs of their phone. I think mine is just a faulty one... I'm hoping.... The company I bought if from hasn't returned my emails.... I did get one response saying it's a high quality second star brand China made and that I could install custom roms, but when I replied as to how via my roadblocks no response.

I also think the ability to remove the bloatware would be awesome. I found that after rooting and using TB to delete the apps I won't use they reappear after reboot. Very surprising! But then again I'm fairly new to droid after 5 years with iPhone.

Very much looking forward to the ROMs available for this device. The developer work done here is amazing. Thank you!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] homeslice976:
no clock, transparent status bar, and no clock with transparent status bar. These will work on any ROM based on 1.26.502.10 (stk is short for stock, sorry if that's confusing). If the ROM you're using has other SystemUI mods (battery, EQS, etc), this will overwrite those. Flashable in recovery

Edit: transparent status bar is no more transparent then stock in the launcher and not at all in apps. So that mod is a fail. I'll look closer tomorrow

I have a debloat tool posted in the Dev section for exactly that. The reason this happens is due to new nand protection on the /system/ partition... any changes that are made while the ROM is booted will revert upon reboot. So changes either need to be made while the ROM is not booted (in recovery), or you need to install a custom kernel that has this proection disabled..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] toolhas4degrees:
to fix this flash a custom kernel from the international section, removes the system write lock in the (kernel) :D

Figured out my question, nevermind
[HTC Droid DNA] dev/null/:
Yesterday my dna died while at a dealership then I went to plug it into my car charger and the led came on to indicate charging. The phone automatically booted into the bootloader at which point I selected reboot phone and after that it went black as if there wasn't enough juice to boot and shut off. Since then the phone won't charge. When plugged into the wall, no orange led comes on to show its charging and after being left plugged in over night I'm still having the same issue.

I've got a lot of important things on there and I really hope there's something I can do.

Thanks :crying:
[HTC Droid DNA] zachf714:
it may be in a boot loop try booting into the boot loader and flashing twrp then boot into it and let it charge
[HTC Droid DNA] superchaos:
Make sure your cable isn't borked. For some reason, the cable wires break at the connector on the small end. Try a different cable. The orange charging light should come on after about 5-15 minutes of charging depending how dead it is.
[HTC Droid DNA] dev/null/:
At this point the phone is refusing to do anything or at least appears to be doing nothing. Pressing the power does nothing and when plugged into any power source no orange led. I don't know how I would boot into the boot loader while the phone is in this state.

Thanks. I've tried several cables and from different charging sources, wall, computer USB and my car and none make the orange led come on. I've tried holding the power for 20-30 seconds to see if I could reboot it but that didn't work either. The phone has never been dropped on anything but carpet once or twice and never near any water.
[HTC Droid DNA] Salsbar:
I have this exact same problem; however, my phone came back in a few days? It seems to get stuck like that every so often but then comes back and has around 30-40% battery left. I am about to lock it and put it back to stock and get a replacement.

Were you running any ROMs? I'm running a clean stock ROM.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Maybe try to open it up and disconnect the battery. This is a common pro let on the Nexus 7 and usually people get it fixed by disconnecting the battery and putting it back on. If you feel comfortable opening the phone you could try that.
[HTC Droid DNA] dev/null/:
I'm running stock rom with root and clockwork. I've had the phone like that since late December and nothing wrong until now. Now that you mention though, the same thing did happened awhile back but like you it randomly started working again on its own. I hope it comes back soon.

I was going to disassemble it after finding a guide and almost purchased a replacement charging port for the phone thinking maybe it was broken or something but I may try that. Thanks.
[HTC Droid DNA] Salsbar:
Cool. Keep me updated. I'm very curious now.
[HTC Droid DNA] superchaos:
When you hold down the power button for 10-15 seconds, do the led's on the bottom of the screen blink? I let mine drain all the way out. Plugged it in. the orange light was blinking slow. I held down the power button until after the led's blinked 13 times. I don't know why they blinked 13 times but they did. held down the power button again and it booted up.

When you connect it to your computer, is it found as a device through ADB commands? Is it listed as a drive attached to the computer?
[HTC Droid DNA] dev/null/:
Good news, I disassembled it and disconnected the battery from the mobo like another user suggested earlier and after putting it together and plugging it in it is charging and booted to recovery :)

Prior to disassembling it no, the LEDs never blinked when holding it down and when I tried charging it through my computer USB port it was never detected. Everything seems to be fixed now but thanks for suggestions. I still don't know what happened but hopefully it was just a one-off thing :)
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Glad to hear your back up. Good job. It could also possibly be that the battery somehow got disconnected. I wouldn't return it unless it happens again. Just try not to let it die and I don't think it will happen again. Or if you drop it, it may also disconnect. But I wouldn't get a replacement unless the issue comes up again.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
If you get a replacement your phone will be unlockable.

Glad you found the problem.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
If you use an unlock code or you used the "built-in" method (using the dialer code menu), then yeah, you're unlocked forever. But never take an OTA if you're rooted. Because you'll lose root and it'll probably cause you to have to reflash your ROM.

Hi all,

I've got quite a strange situation... my Samsung Galaxy S3 from Telstra in Australia (GT-I9305T) hasn't been able to boot into recovery for a while (it stuck on the Samsung Boot screen) and now just booting my phone regularly gets me stuck on the same place. I've also turned off USB Debugging because I seemed to be having problems with charging my phone previously and it seemed to fix my problems, placebo or not.

I want to try and re-flash firmware via Odin but I can't figure out if I can turn on USB Debugging while my phone is off (perhaps via terminal/console commands?). If anyone's got any ideas on how to un-brick my phone you would be an absolute god-send. Thanks!

I've tested it on my international HTC One X+ running unofficial CM10.1 and it works perfectly.
