My Galaxy Wonder is CONSTANTLY HEATING and made my 2 NEW batteries BULGE..

Even the phone not in "USE" the battery is CONSTANTLY HEATING w/o decreasing in temp.

Any Help Guys? Maybe its related with the Main Board.. but i didn't do anything.. I bought 2 new batteries for test if battery was defective but i got the same result. Maybe a short circuit or something? How do i fix this?

Any Expert would be much appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
If it's heating up even in stand-by, that's definitely not ok. Anyway, it would have been nice to know which ROM are you using. :P

My honest opinion is to make a pristine install of your ROM using the steps below (all of them). It should help.

For installation, first, make sure you got the ROM and the correct Gapps on your External SD Card.

After that, enter CWM and:

clear data (factory reset)

clear dalvik cache (under the "advanced" menu)

go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!

under the same menu, format /sdcard (be careful NOT to format /external_sd by mistake)

install the ROM (from the external sd)

install Gapps (from the external sd)

reboot your phone

Please, note that every step of this tutorial is mandatory!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Crest+:
Thanks for the reply sire..

My phone ROM is stock ROM the original firmware from samsung and never been modified.

Even in standby mode the battery keeps heating u and thus battery drain occurs.

Im thinking there is some shortage or leakage or problem inside the board ( never been wet by water or any liquid substances)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Do you have any data connection on? I'm thinking an app such as Facebook or Facbook Messrenger or other IM clients that might be always trying to connect to the internet, thus making a lot of data trafic and so...making the battery heat up, which under these circumstances would be quite normal.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Crest+:
Yes sire. No apps fresh wipe from stock recovery. On standby still heating up without turning screen on continously dropping.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Well the software issues that I suspected are out off the window now. The only reason for this would be a short-circuit on the battery or the battery connectors or indeed something on the motherboard. Did you try going to a GSM service to see what's wrong with it? Diagnostics are usually free of charge. So I would recommend you to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
Do a fectory reset and install CPUSpy and do a screenshoot of you battery statistics. So if this is caused by an app or service, we can better see what is causing this, but if there will be nothing suspicious your phone will be a case for warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Crest+:
I dont think there will be any warranty.. I bought my phone on the first release of the unit,.

"No APPS no Programs Fresh wiped STOCK firmware"
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dhada:
Is this ok? i do this step by step, or i did a wrong step?

1.Wipe data/factory reset

2.Wipe cache partition

3.Format / system

4.Format / cache

5.Format / Data

6.Format / sdcard

7.Wipe Dalvik Cache

8.Fix Permissions

9.install the ROM (from the external sd)

10.install Gapps (from the external sd)

11.reboot your phone

After this i repeat again into step 1 to step 11 then im done :p
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
It's WAAAAAYYYY too much. Read up my post, compare and you will see exactly what you need to do.

Don't waste your time doing more steps. More steps doesn't always mean better. And in this case, it's not. So, just follow those steps. Only those steps.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dhada:
Too bad im already restored all my backup games and apps and im tired to repeat flash this phone :rolleyes:

PS: It takes 2days before i restore all my games ,apps , backups data
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
2 days? How big is your memory card? :)) Cause from my point of view, even if you got a 32GB full of data to restore on your SD Card, with an average speed of...let's say 5MB/s, it should still take you a lot less than 48h.

But anyway...I would recommend restoring only the data you need (if any). Not everything. It takes less time to restore and it's better when changing ROMs.

And since this is going off topic, I think that we should stop this conversation here. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dhada:
yEAH its 32gig class 4, Well for now im trying to test my phone if the deepsleepmode was working, Sometimes my battery drain to much even during stambymode.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Try this. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dhada:
Is this good?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Yes

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] steviet23:
Hi guys I have a question hopefully someone can help me with. I have the myTouch 4G Slide from T-Mobile but I want to use it on Verizons network. I know how to root and unlock the boot-loader but are there any other steps I need to take before this is functional? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
Version uses sim cards right? If so just search the threads here on how to sim unlock your phone, I believe I read one or two here before. You can also have it unlocked by tmo if your on contract with them or you can buy sim unlock codes
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] HappyKhicken:
Verizon uses CDMA. The MT4GS is a GSM phone, so there is no way to use it on Verizon's service. It doesn't have a radio that is compatible with Verizon's towers.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Exactly! There is absolutely no way to get this phone, or any GSM phone that I know of, to work on Verizon's system. Even T-Mobile's new LTE service is different than the LTE from Verizon (not that this phone can work on either of those, either).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
Haha, couldn't remember myself, hence the foggy reply! CDMA is such a pain, makes me wonder why anyone uses a carrier with it, I mean unless you never travel or want your phone to only ever work with one carrier....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
There are a few Verizon and Sprint (both CDMA carriers) that have GSM backup. They market them as their "World Phones". The iPhone5 is one of them. If the phones have the GSM portion unlocked (Verizon automatically unlocks theirs, Sprint will unlock on request after a certain amount of time), you can use a foreign SIM and the GSM radio of those phones. But, you have to be careful, the phones default to the CDMA and if you have roaming turned on, in some countries that could be a VERY expensive oversight with roaming charges.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tco9:
So I recently rooted my Verizon Note II, rooted with casual and twrp. I flashed the milestone version of aokp and for some reason cannot mount my external sd card. I get an error message that says "sd card is blank or has an unsupported filesystem". The sd card was working fine on my rooted phone before flashing aokp. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eBoody:
Its my understanding some Roms dont support exFat, a file system format used by SD Cards. you should try backing up the data and then formatting it to fat32.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tco9:
thanks for the advice. It seems like aokp can reformat the card itself, but I'm a little afraid to let it try. I was also just reading about using siyah kernal and another thing called vold-exfat that lets you use an exfat formatted card. I think I'm gonna do one of these two things but it seems easiest to let aokp reformat my card if it will actually reformat my 64gb sd to fat32. I haven't been able to find out what it will reformat to though... very confusing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
It won't reformat a 64GB card right. Download something likr EaseUS or another formatting tool. There is one that is posted on XDA quite a bit but for the life of me I can't remember its name.

I just switched from tmobile prepaid to at&t prepaid (no choice, need better coverage bc I travel a bunch with work, and they pay for most of it). Ever since I switched all my Google services get a server error and can't connect, on cell data only, over wifi they connect fine. Tonight I noticed other apps are doing the same thing, like Falcon pro, things that use g+ for multiplayer, etc.

I've already tried clearing cache and data on Google play and play services. Then I wiped dalvik and cache. Didn't help. Any ideas?

Have you changed any APN settings between the time you used your phone on T-Mobile and AT&T?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sounds like your data speeds are horrible. wiping cache/dalvik has nothing to do with your issue. sounds like your issue is either att prepaid or your apn.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
No I haven't touched my apn settings. They all say something with "cingular" in them. I've never messed work apn did so I hadn't thought of that. Any recommendations?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
I would agree you might be on AT&T's Edge (2G) network which sucks for doing anything as its so slow. What network shows up in settings>about phone>status?

---------- Post added at 10:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

Here are my APN settings for AT&T GoPhone

Name: ATT WAP

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
Thanks. Mine were exactly what yours were. I changed them to whats below and have had no problems since. I'm a little unsure about what apns can be used but I gave it a try and it worked.

Name: HSPA

APN: phone

MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net

MMS port: 80

APN type: default,supl,agps,fota,dun,mms
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
So with these settings above, I get no mms, can't send or receive. Is there any harm to using straight talk APNs or LTE APNs even though LTE is not supported (officially) on my phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
They only work if you have that service, same for the mobile data card APN your trying now.

Have you checked to make sure you have 4G (HSPA+), or 3G service from AT&T in your area. Could be you only have 2G service in your area. While AT&T's coverage is better than T-Mobile it doesn't come anywhere close to that of Verizon and they still have a lot of 2G only coverage areas especially rural areas outside of major cities.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
Well I'm in Orlando, we have great coverage. That's not the issue. I think my default APN was messed up somehow. I called into AT&T and they wanted me to do a hard wipe of the phone. I doubt that would change anything.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
My default APN settings are exactly the same as yours listed above. Also, i have HSPA 10 and HSPA+ 15 showing in about phone. Could this be one of those occassions where the location is so busy that they boot me to a slower signal? I have full bars HSPA at all times.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
If your device is showing HSPA+ 10,15 then the phone is getting a 4G signal and yes if too many people are using a tower, or hogging all the bandwidth, at any given time it will slow everyone down. The bandwidth available is finite and has to be split between everyone using it. Try conectng late at night and see if you're speeds pick up.

I only get Edge (2G) at work and sending an MMS is nearly impossible, takes 20 minutes at best to send and Words with Friends won't connect to its server and that uses hardly any data at all. Could be that so many people on on the towers around you that it's down to 2G speeds even though it says HSPA+ on the phone. New York and San Francisco are a couple of areas where AT&T was famous for incredibly slow data speeds with iPhones for years because of all the people trying to use towers at the same time..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jirafabo:
Thanks. While I don' expect that is the problem as Orlando is not really a super saturated market, it could be.

I was getting great speeds with the mobile hotspot apn settings, but obviously no mms. Can i use a different set of MMS settings as the top server and proxy settings? also I just realized I have to reset the phone every time i make a change. I probably already found a good working set but didnt do a reset. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stevey5036:
Is anyone having trouble with getting their wallpaper to stick? It seems like after a reboot, any wallpaper that I set is returned to the stock wallpaper. This also applies to the vibration profile that I set for notifications. Stock VZW rom, rooted with no modifications whatsoever.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icepik1234:
I am also having issues with this. Im rooted but still stock rom running nova prime. I have tried setting the wallpaper as home screen and as nova wallpaper. My lockscreen also sometimes disappears. I am also running widget locker for my lockscreen and sometimes it disappears. This doesnt just happen on reboots for me. Sometimes it happens when I dont use my phone for a while (like overnight) even if the phone is on the whole time. Are you running titanium backup or juicedefender? I thought they might be causing it. Anyone else having issues or have a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] travishamockery:
Are either of you using Xposed or 3minit? If you do any framework changes it reverts the wallpaper.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stevey5036:
Also using Nova Prime. Not using Xposed or 3minit or anything else that messes with the framework. I have Titanium Backup run a batch job every night, but the wallpaper doesn't reset every night.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icepik1234:
I am also not running either of those. Rooted but stock still. I cant imagine why nova would change my background on the lock screen and turn widgetlocker off. Widgetlocker is still enabled when I open it but it doesnt show up before the lock screen until I open the app. All 3 changes seem to happen randomly. The other day my lock screen changed and wouldnt change back until I rebooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icepik1234:
This happened to me again overnight last night. My widgetlocker lock screen and my homescreen disappeared. I also had a notification that titanium backup had performed a backup last night. Im sure this has to be some sort of settings issue. I cant imagine were the only 2 people with nova and titanium. Does anyone know a fix for this? Its driving me nuts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] icepik1234:
Bump. We cant be the only 2 this is happening to.

Sorry to post this here but after two days searching, I don't know what to do. Three days back my xu was very weird, rebooting and didn't recognize the sim card. After that I try to flash a stock untouched rom and kernel... and now it doesn't boot, charge and connect to flashmode. I searched in google and xda for answers and tried some methods to bring it back to life, but nothing works. Help me please u.u, maybe there's something I've missing
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
repair your phone using Sony PCC.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
If you have unlocked bootloader [MENTION=4063118]blackkzero[/MENTION] lock it again and then try Sony PCC.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
that's the worst part of this, sony pcc don't recognize it and it has locked bootloader :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
Try with seus. Maybe works this one.

Did you try to flash a custom kernel too to see if boots? Maybe from miui since there is a version for locked bootloader too.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
seus don't recognize it, and I can't flash customs kernels, only stock based (lb). I let it charge all the night, without response :eek:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
try this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40654231&postcount=638. Extract the boot.img and flash it. Maybe could work.Works for lb too.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
sorry for my delay in response. I think I cannot flash a boot.img because I'm in locked bootloader (right?, how?). I managed to charge a bit the battery but when I try to boot up a green led of the led bar turns on, it looks like it is stuck in flashmode :S. Maybe I've lost my device forever :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
Why don't you try to unlock bootloader?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Joker.:
Did u try using the flash tool..?? download the stock fft for ur device and try flash using the flash tool. Since u have a locked bootloader u should not flash custom kernels. only stock kernels could be flashed else u will brick ur soft device.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
I've tried before, bootloader locked status says no :/

yes, but when I try to boot up it doesn't, keeps stucked in flashmode
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] werty100:
When i was locked bootloader it happens more or less the same:

Out batery for 5min+-

Then you put in batery

You pluged in charger if will so a red light.

Trie to power on you will see green ligth this is a proces unpluged it..

Here we have to divide:

If ypu have linux conect with flashmode mode and type in terminal usblist it show you a list of plugged devices in your computer take the line of sony erison and compare with the rules you have before mayne the code have change.

In windows i dont know hoq to do it...

Open flashtool preparate the ftf and plugged your mobile phone pres volume - until it start to flashing it forces not to go out from flashmode

Tell what happen

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kantry123:
that hapened to me when i've flashed custom kernel on locked bootloader.....my device didn't get boot so i took out my battery & waited for 10-15 sec & allowed xperia u to discharge completely by draining ststic charge left, this can be done by pressing power button..without inserting the battery....

after that i directly booted into fastboot mode & flashed stock ftf....hurray..!

note: this trick won't work if ur battery is completely discharged....so for that use any universal charger..& charge it & the do the above process....

also if u have locked bootloader..there are less chances of getting hard bricked....!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
thanks for your answers, I will try the two methods described above. If they not work I think it's time to say good bye to my old friend. I'll feedback later :')
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
I managed to flash a rom/kernel, but still happens the same

keeps stucked in flashmode, it can't boot anymore. I don't what to do :/. I'll keep it stored as a souvenir u.u. Thanks all for your time
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mtakween:
Here is what to do

Ur device can bring led will booting

And you can charge your phone

So here is what to do

Charge ur phone about 1 hour

Make sure their is enough battery

Now try unlocking ur device bootloader

Don't use flash tool to unlock

Make sure you done it right

Then flash a custom kernel

If it opens go to recovery and do factory reset

Or

Flash recovery for stock ics locked bootloader

Boot and flash an ics stock based Rom

For LOcked bootloader

Do a factory reset

And done

Hope this help

If I did not work

Pm me I will try to solve this problem

Don't worry this is a softbreak

So. It is due to device fw/software

Problem so it can be fixed here on xda

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
many thanks, I'll post feedback soon :)

EDIT: [MENTION=4976506]Mtakween[/MENTION], I can't charge my device, when I plug the wall charger or pc usb (not universal charger) it boots (no sony logo) but like it is connected to flashmode or sometimes the red notification led turns on. I will try to charge the original battery with another method, because I was using a small battery but doesn't fit. For all of this and my locked bootloader, I can't do what you say (flash a custom kernel) or you mean I should try it anyway?. Thanks for your time :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] blackkzero:
[MENTION=4976506]Mtakween[/MENTION] I can't unlock the bootloader (bootloader unlock status: no) so I can't connect to fastboot, don't matter what I do. I can still flash stock kernels/roms successfully, but the phone doesn't boot, keeping always with the same behavior: red led notification/green led bar (flashmode) when is connected to charger :/

I've been fiddling with my Cerberus installation, and I've come to find out it can't do anything with the cameras. When I send a remote request to take a picture or record video with the cameras, the phone either freezes or it sends me an unreadable file. It does everything else fine, like display messages and set alarms and GPS tracking. Seems to be a problem it has with the camera. Is this a known problem?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just a guess dince im not at all sure, but possibly Cerberus hasnt been made fully compatible with 4.2.2?
