[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bateluer:
So, Tuesday, when I visited the TMO store, the rep acknowledged the power button as clearly broken and defective, but he had no stock of Ones to replace it with. Today, I called head to verify that they'd received their shipment and had stock.

And I'm pretty sure I ended up speaking with the village idiot. According to her, the power button is not broken because the phone still turns on. Nevermind that you can turn on their floor model with a simple tap with the fleshy part of your finger and mine requires a forceful press with the finger nail. Again, according to her, she could exchange it would require a restocking fee of 50 dollars, something thats apparently hard wired into their sales system and which requires a manager override to get around. When I inquired why they'd knowingly put a defective/broken device back on the shelf for sale, she reiterated that its not broken. Because the screen still turns on. So, I guess under her logic a cracked screen isn't broken if it can still display an image?

I wasn't going to spend an afternoon arguing with her either, since I had to get to work and the manager was off site at a meeting. I confirmed that he would be present tomorrow morning, when I return. Again, which would be my 3rd visit for this, not counting the initial purchase.

If they refuse, then its what? A refurb through insurance or a refurb through HTC? My annoyance meter is definitely rising, and if this isn't resolved correctly tomorrow morning, I'm going to write a strongly worded letter to corporate. And I have the names and business cards of the two individuals who sold me the phone, handling the phone number porting and account set up, as well as the name of the poor rep I spoke with today.

Thats from the AT review in April. My power button does not look like that. It is not raised at all, its actually recessed/below from the surrounding material. My morning with the village idiot has had me stewing all day. :/ The finger nail and force required to hit my power button has scratched the hell out of the IR surface of the button . . . not sure if that'll impact the quality of the IR blaster. But these scratches are quite visible and the phone's not even a week old yet. What would it look like in a month? 6 months? 24 months? I did leave a grandfathered unlimited contract on Verizon to come to TMO . . .thats a one way trip. Annoyance meter currently at 6/10.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theotrman:
I'm on Sprint, but I was outside my 14 day return and noticed one part of my screen was raised up and the other side was recessed slightly. On the 19th day I called Sprint Corporate and had them verify inventory at the Corporate store I purchased it from, then explained my issue over the phone to them. While talking to Sprint CS, I asked for an appointment. She called ahead and when I got there and showed them my screen issue. I stayed firm and asked the manger to compare to new out of the box device. This one was worse. So we ends up with 5 phones on the table and I chose the best of them. Took work but I stead fast and stayed firm. You are a customer. T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon are the distributor. 30 days is a typical cut of date for a manufacturers warranty. The cell carrier will simple submit the phone to HTC for defective issues....
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bateluer:
Wheww. Was in the TMO store again this morning. Got a rep with an actual brain in his head. Took him 30 seconds to look at my power button and confirm that it was indeed defective. Swapped the SIM into a replacement, factory reset the old one, printed a new receipt to confirm the swap, bang, done. In and out in 15 minutes, no warranty processing fees or BS restocking fees. :)

This power button appears to be solid. Now my root timer resets, 30 days. :P Heh, conveniently right after the One Google Edition launches.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iKlutz:
Never had this happen with other roms but it is probably coincidence that it happened with the new cm10 beta by oliver and maclaw.

After draining my battery completely and connecting my charger I was presented with a beautiful white screen with diagonal grey glitchy lines. No reboot or recovery, just this 'white screen'.

I assumed the battery was not charging correctly because after many attempts the phone would still not stay on during download mode.

The only way to correct the problem was to leave it plugged in on the white screen for half hour and then refresh this pit file in odin:

[Galaxy S 4 Developer Discussion [Developers-Only]] garwynn:
I'm sure I'm not the first developer to ask this question, so at the risk of possible embarrassment I pose this question to the development community as a way for myself and others to learn:

When we build AOSP projects we often do based on the repos from that project. But in Samsung's OSRC releases you often get 2 packages: kernel source and a "platform" package. In there is what Samsung "says" is needed to build AOSP for that given device. For example, I often see bluetooth and audio source in there.

So here's the question....

Given the issues we're seeing in i9505 variants for Bluetooth and headphone call audio, why do we not try using this source for testing purposes? Sure, it may not be the newest but if it works where we are currently having issues; couldn't the differences be merged and hopefully resolve the issue?

Obviously Samsung's solution of just "dropping" the source on top of stuff already being used doesn't make sense. But I can't believe I'm the first to ask and there has to be a reason why. Hopefully some maintainers can shed some light and by doing so, help newer devs (like me) understand the background behind it.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Developer Discussion [Developers-Only]] Entropy512:
The stuff in platform isn't what is needed for AOSP - it is (with rare exceptions) only GPL-licensed stuff Samsung is legally obligated to release.

Occasionally little bits and pieces of it are useful (like a single GS2 or GS3 release that included libsecril-client source code), but usually not.

For example, the BT stack in all GS1 platform releases was useless for AOSP, because it was Broadcom's hacked-up version that had dependencies on a proprietary binary (I forget its name - they got around GPL by making it a separate program that communicated using sockets with the rest of the BT stack.)

All of the BT/headphone problems with Snapdragon-based GS4s are, as I understand it, issues with libcsd-client (same library that was troublesome for Note2 and CM until someone ran libcsd-client through Hex-Rays Decompile to see what Samsung mangled...)

It seems like OEMs have a bad habit of hacking up libcsd-client in undocumented ways - LOTS of Qcom devices have had miscellaneous weirdness stemming from libcsd-client lately.

yes there are several updates in various languages.

All you got to do is search this forum.

But not all updates are compatible with your MDAII.

you have to check the country id of your MDAII against the country id in the update.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mikusriekstins:
Hello.

Since recently got the JellyBean update, I updated my phone as soon as it got launched. After 3 weeks of using it got tired of super slow performance so I decided to back to GingerBread despite all the new features.

So I decided to go for Stock GingerBread with root from this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2231283 , but to do that I needed to root it and install CWM Recovery. To get it rooted I found this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2249077 and decided to go for Method 2 mentioned in the thread and flashed ThP Kernel from link provided in the thread. Would have done Method 1 if I had time but I wanted to go for a run so had no time to do the long method ( I know, rushing things like these can get you in trouble like this ).

Right after flashing ThP Kernel phone restarted and never turned on. Tried getting into fastboot, no success. All I had was red LED when connected to PC. Freaked out and tried soft reset (volume up + power till one vibration), nothing changed tried hard reset (volume up + power till 3 vibrations), still no change. Realized I have just bricked my phone big time I left it be and read all I could about unbricking.

My plan was to put it on wall charger and leave it be for a day or so. Next day I tried to fastboot, but did not work. Only thing that had changed was the red LED turning on for about 5 minutes after connecting to wall charger, but thats it. Left it on wall charger for 6 more hours and figured since nothing changes, maybe I should just let it stay with no charger for a day. Did that and still no change. Today tried to hard reset but this time it does not event vibrate. All I have is red LED for 5 minutes when plugged in to wall charger or PC.

TLTR:

After flashing ThP Kernel to root JB phone has no repsonse. Did soft reset, hard reset - no response. Plugged to wall for a day, now have red LED for 5 minutes after replugging to wall, nothing else. Can't get it connected to PC in any way.

The question I'm looking answer to is what can I do at this point? Is the phones hardware broken or there is still a hope to unbrick it? If so, what can I do to unbrick it?

Root Call Blocker Pro

I have recently been having problems with this app as well. It may be isolated to either my phone (Galaxy S4 Verizon) or any recent updates to the app. It worked flawlessly on my old phone (Motorola Droid Razr).

When in Black List Mode, I am able to receive calls fine for those not on my block list, but can't receive texts from the same phone number. I verified this against my work cell phone and my wife's phone. The other issue is when I add one of my Google Contacts groups into the block list, all phone numbers and texts messages are blocked regardless if they are on the blocked list or not. The issue is related to the app and not my phone since when freezing the app via TiBu, all calls and SMS messages come through fine.

Hopefully I am not alone in this so a fix can be put out soon; I have already tried to contact the developers on this, but haven't received a reply yet. Any help with this would be great!

Partition are not the same than standard android, so I will have to change them ( I will have to change fstab files but IDK what exactly )

They also use non standard frame buffer so I will have to load the correct driver ( /system/lib/modules -- /system/lib/hw I guess )
