And you think finding ADM under "Security>Device administrators" on the device and in a "store" under "settings" on a PC is supremely fresh and intuitive? The latter seems like a kludge either because Google was too lazy to create a dedicated site for ADM or it was cheaper/faster just to throw it in to Play because that’s where all their device management already takes place.

This is where Find My Mobile's controlled on the device. Pretty simple and straight-forward to me.

I think the features in TW are great; it's one of the reasons I buy Samsung devices. I agree that the appearance of TW is dated and could use an overhaul to make it more contemporary. Sense is a beautiful (but functionally deficient) overlay in my opinion. I think stock Android is a barren wasteland aesthetically and functionally. Comparing it to iOS is a really big stretch. Now that a GE SGS4 exists those that hate TW don't have to continue to attack it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] James.Miller:
Touchwiz isnt the problem AT ALL. The problem is samsungs software only works on touchwiz. This works on just about everything, and as featureless as it might be at the moment, it wouldnt take google long to catch up if they wanted to.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oblique1:
So I got my SGS4 about 8-9 weeks ago and flashed the Omega ROM. Everything was functioning perfectly up until this weekend just gone. The battery died on Friday night and then when I went to charge it on Saturday, it wouldn't charge. All that happens is the initial battery charging logo comes up, stays there for a few seconds and then reboots into the same thing, a loop (this happens charging both from a PC and from a wall outlet/power adapter).

The funny thing here is that it doesn't seem to be the port on the phone as it's recognising when something gets plugged in. I can even connect it to my PC and Odin can see it. I have borrowed a fully charged battery off a colleague and done a factory wipe/reset and flashed the stock ROM/firmware. Now I can boot in to the OS. However it still wont charge.

It seems as though the "charging" part of my phone is broken. The port seems to be functioning as the device realises when it's plugged in to either a PC or power adapter, it just wont charge.

Anyway, so I'm trying to figure out if this is a software or hardware problem before I attempt to send it back for warranty repairs.

Let me know if any further details are required. Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
I m not 100% sure but did u try connecting any micro usb to pendrive connector to use data from pen drive etc ?

if u did again u connect and disconnect and then plug the charger and see what happns
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oblique1:
Thanks for the reply mate. However I've not connected it to anything like that.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Use some other cable and try if possble only the original one other then u have already
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadeshmagic:
Although the pc and odin are abe to recognize your phone....there could be dirt particles stuck inside the micro usb port....because we always carry our phones in our pockets...the lint and pieces of thread can get it....i suggest you try n clean it with a small pin....i did it to my phone...and it was much better....but please do be careful..... also try to replace your data cable with an original cable from somewhere else...because with time these cables wear out.....just try it out...good luck....hope you get your phone back to charging condition :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oblique1:
Thanks for the recommendations guys. I tried it with the cable/charger that came with the device but there was no difference.

I'll try and give it a careful clean sadeshmagic. Cheers.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
If you can find it I would suggest instead of a pin, a can of compressed air. This means no damage to the connectors as you aren't sticking anything in there and any dust/lint/crud get blown out....
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oblique1:
Just to provide some closure on this, I got it repaired under warranty and the fpcb board was replaced. It now works fine. Thanks guys.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RucanorX:
I have a feeling I might have a similar issue. Woke up this morning, phone dead - no indication from phone that it was charging.

Went to Sprint store and apparently, they dont sell batteries. Dude charged my battery for 20 minutes and my phone turned on, but no indication when charger plugged in that anything was happening.

Used a pin and X-acto to clean out this really gross piece of what appeared to be some kind of sticker/adhesive combined with lint, and now my phone shows as if its charging, but doesnt appear to be. I'm thinking one of the pins is probably corroded and need the same board.

Do you think that board is easy to replace or should I just try to get a replacement through insurance?
[Micromax A116] mehulboricha:
Many users have problem regarding the battery gets discharged 90% to 20% in few minutes.So here is the simple solution...

3.unplug the charger..

4.allow battery to discharge(Don't use too heavy app to do it just normal use)

5.after discharging again fully charge the battery..

6.Your Battery is now callibrated...

I can't seem to use the *#*#4636#*#* code in the dialer, nothing happens after typing it. I'm looking to force the phone to use 3G signals and even the app from the play store can't modify the radio. Is this option carrier limited or the firmware does not really allow it? :confused:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Meizirkki:
I couldn't get to the info menu either, but I could set the preferred network to 3G from carrier menu. It still sometimes drops from 3G to 2G but not as often.

help me, my xda wont display anything on it's screen even the wallaby wont appear though it's power is on.What might be the cause of the problem?

thanks in advance...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Robson:
what happened with it? did you drop it? installed an app, went swimming, etc? have you done a hard reset already?

sunny side up...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] evan_gerard:
fried xda

I just upgraded it to from xda special rom 1.2 to ppc2003, then the upgrade didn't complete because of some conflict on the process so I did a hard reset and presto the bootloader keep on appearing and doesn't boot on the OS, then after that I made a soft reset, after that the even the wallaby didn't appear anymore...is it already dead?or can I still reprogram the wallaby?plss helllp.

a million thanks....
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
cant you make it enter the bootloader ?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] evan_gerard:
fried xda

I can't enter the bootloader
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Robson:
you may need to do a couple of hard resets. i don't think your unit is fried; just got stuck while going through the upgrade. a lot of chaps had to do a bunch of hard resets until the unit brings itself back to bootloader...this was for both xda1 and 2 i believe...just keep on hard reseting the unit. it should go back to bootloader eventually.

once that's done cradle back the unit and rerun the upgrade. oh btw; when you recradle don't expect activesync to show any indication that it's working or recognizes your device. just cradle it back and click on your upgrade file. with luck it should go through.

good luck
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] evan_gerard:
tnx a lot, but how can I know if my unit is already fried?

a zillion tnx
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Robson:
as long as the unit shows some signs of life it's still ok. when i upgraded to 2003se my unit got stuck w/the screen saying serial 1.something. only after like 2 hard resets did it go back to bootloader. in your case it should still be fine. if all else fails...well maybe it IS fried and it's an excuse to upgrade the unit itself :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] evan_gerard:
I forgot to tell that my son accidentally removed the Memory card while I'm flashing, would that fried the unit?

Nice to see your work on the forums, is it for the MIUI porting conetest? Will test ASAP, great work bro ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] ILA:
Why port MIUI when it's officially supported for the DHD already?
[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
Na...not for the contest...As you know I was working on the 4.3 for DHD, I decided to also add a few features of 4.3 on 4.2.2 so, used the MIUI port
[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
I'm working on a source build of 4.3 for DHD. So I just used an miui port with a few features of 4.3.This has been released only for testers cause I wanted test feedbacks. It's more of a kernel problem I face on the source port so decided to use the 4.2.2 kernel.

So to answer your question, I need feedbacks of the ROM , FCs, ANRs whatever...because I need to be sure that a few features are compatible with the existing kernel.

The 4.3 features are not ui changes just to answer future questions. It includes a few low level changes. For example the new OpenGl , a few bluetooth mods.
[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
I believe many would have the question "Why a port when there is an official ROM?"

The answer is I'm working on a source build of 4.3 for DHD. I have created an miui port with a few features of 4.3.

This has been released only for testers cause I wanted test feedbacks. My bad that I didn't mention it on the OP .

I need feedbacks of the ROM , FCs, ANRs whatever...because I need to be sure that a few features are compatible with the existing kernel.

The 4.3 features are not ui changes just to answer future questions. It includes a few low level changes. For example the new OpenGl , a few bluetooth mods.

So what you need to do is send feedback regarding any issues you face. preferably a logcat.

[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
I'm sorry I didn't quite understand...Could you send me a logcat?
[Desire HD Android Development] shinaipt99:
Always great to see new ROMs showing up! In the past I tried using miui and kind of liked it but the lag and choppiness on the OS made me return to CM 4.2.2. The question is, how is this ROM on those aspects? Good luck on 4.3 development, its makes my eye water every time I see people showing love for DHD :D

How to send a logcat?try to open show screenshot info on/off button in settings-statusbar..is it work normally?
[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
If it's the screenshot you're talking about...it works from the quick settings menu.
[Desire HD Android Development] Steam.:
i think he's talking about the option in settings somewhere, called show screenshot info, I've noticed it myself a few times I've used MIUI, but I can't recall where exactly it is.It's an option for sure, not the screenshot button on the toggles.
[Desire HD Android Development] B.R.A:
You can find it in settings-status bar..i'm using cm10.1 now..i cant send a screenshot to tell you where is the "show screenshot info" what i mean..
[Desire HD Android Development] deathscream:
Yes. I noticed the bug. Enabling the "show screenshot info" in settings->status bar settings is buggy. Thanks for reporting.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperHamm:
Hello XDA! New member here with a huge problem.

So I recently flashed Helly Bean 4.2.2 onto my Nexus S 4G and it was great, really fast! But for some reason, when my phone died and I powered it back on, it was stuck at the boot animation. I still cannot get passed it. Now I know an issue like this can be solved through the recovery (I use TWRP) but some months ago, my power button messed up. It's as if it's always in the pushed in position even though it isn't, it still clicks like the first day i got it. My phone automatically boots up when i connect my charger or put a charged battery in. I can get into fastboot mode but due to messed up power button, I can't scroll down to the recover option and even if i could, I wouldn't be able to execute it. So that's my problem, I'm stuck at the boot animation, and I'm stuck at the fastboot menu. Is there anyway I can reset factor settings/flash another rom/ or even revert back to stock and unroot from fastboot using some program?? I'd prefer not to lose anything on my SD card though, but if it has to be done then so be it. ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikekir97:
first.. did you eneble Usb debuging when you had a working rom..?? If yes then you should try this while you have the boot loop to get into recovery.. you could then make a factory reset and you should be fine.. ;) I hope this helps you..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperHamm:
I did have USB-debugging on, always do. I've tried booting into recovery using the quick tools but all it says "booting into recovery" and nothing happens. My phone just stays on the boot animation :(

Thanks anyway though!

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Flame86:
Good morning. I registered in this forum some months back (don't remember when) when I was searching for some good ROMs for my GIO S5660.

I ultimately gave up because I couldn't find enough information about flashing (I think it was because the threads gave bad links to odin, or I could only find that specific odin version if I googled because the link's version were outdated/updated). Either way I gave up because smartphones and flashing were (and are) very new to me and I didn't want to risk bricking the phone (although I'm finishing my degree in Computer Science, so some concepts aren't alien to me).

I came back now, decided to find a STABLE and GOOD ROM, with the best battery life I can get. I usually check the screenshots thread and choose the ones that I like the most, normally CM9 or better. Problem is, I spent these past few hours on several of GIO sub-forums (http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1404), searching and scavenging for something I could use or like. It's been very hard, almost all of them have some kind of major problem, like in-call microphone, wireless, deep sleep, something like that.

Am I chasing wild gooses here? Should I be looking instead at CM7 and earlier versions?

On a closing note, I still have 2.3.3 Portuguese version that came with the phone. Can I update safely through the phone's preferences? Main reason I am looking to flash is because of its battery life: if i charge it to 100%, then proceed to use any kind of program/game with the lowest light settings, it can drop to 50% in a matter of minutes. Its speed isn't that great as well.

Thank you for your time, would be great if anyone could help me.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] PanDeGengibre:
Buy a new battery and try AOSP GINGERBREAD 2.3.7 :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] X-zone:
The most stable rom currently for our gio is the Enhanced236. I really recommend you reading as much as you can before doing anything, both about android and flashing, but also basic XDA stuff. Read these "threads", and you're good to go! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Phuuu.. All done? Let's flash that ROM! Wohoooooo.. :victory:

Wait! You need a backup before continuing. :good: Since you doesn't have root or custom recovery, you can't use CWM to make a nandroid. One way to backup your stuff is to use a program called Ultimate Backup Tool. This program doesn't need root or custom recovery. It works on Windows, Mac and Linux. :highfive:

Now we can flash the custom rom! :laugh:

If you wanna install Enhanced236 (the most bugfree one), you need to install install cwm, Clock Work Mod, first. How to:

1. Make sure that you have fully charged your battery.

2. You need to download the ext4only 5.0.2.7 cwm version, here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1421650.

3. After you have downloaded the zip, you go into recovery mode, in this case stock recovering. You do that by holding The Home Button + Power Button until the recovery gets visible.

4. Then you do click on the Apply update from sdcard, and select the cwm zip.

5. After you have flashed the zip, you should reboot your device. Here's a YouTube video on the installation process: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxjxB8P9rSU

6. After you have done that, I recommend you to take a nandroid backup. The backup will be stored on your sdcard, so you can copy the backup to your computer if you want to, just in case. ;)

Now you have installed CWM. Let's install the ROM! :D

7. Download the enhanced236 from this thread. Copy the zip to the root of your sd-card, and then go into CWM. Wipe data/factory reset. After that, wipe the cache partition. NOTE! This will erase everything you have done on your phone, so make sure that you have a backup ready! After that, click on the install zip from sd-card, choose the enhanced236_06.08.2012.zip and flash it. Just follow the instructions that pops up, and then restart your phone. Leave it booting/waiting for like 5 min, and then start touching/configure the device. After doing the necessary configuring, wait another minute. And reboot. And then it's done! :victory:

And if you have any questions, just ask! I'm glad to help! :laugh:

Regards,

X-Zone
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Flame86:
Thank you guys! At the moment I can't, but later at home I will pay closer attention to X-zone's post (I'm @ work).

From what I've read, I'll need the USB cable, or some kind of microSD USB drive, right? I actually rooted the phone almost a year ago, since I found very good info in its thread ;)

[MENTION=5281925]PanDeGengibre[/MENTION]

Do I really need a new battery? ;n;
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] PanDeGengibre:
I think yeah your battery drains very fast!:p
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] X-zone:
You need a usb cable to transfer the roms and that kind of stuff. You can also use a micro SD reader if you want.

BTW I don't think you need to buy a new battery, you must calibrate it once a month or so. Calibrate it and see if that works! :cool:

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] skinniezinho:
Great tutorial,

Followed but flashed 5.0.2.7 (didn't find 5.0.2.0), and now the recovery seems to be only partially working.

I can boot to it, but if I press "flash zip" it only appears the cwm logo, any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] superbg:
Tap the menu button on gio
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] X-zone:
Sorry, typo. Meant 5.0.2.7. Fixed that now. When you click on something in cwm, like flash a zip, press the home button. :cowboy: Navigate up and down with the volume buttons. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Flame86:
Finally have the time to check it out.

I have it rooted, but I don't have my USB cable, just a microSD adapter. Any other way to do the backup? maybe some application in Play Store that backups into the sdCard?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] X-zone:
Titanium backup is a very powerful program on the google play store. The pro version (I recommend you buying it, it's worth it) backup things like your apps + data + Market links. This includes all protected apps & system apps, plus external data on your SD card.

After you have installed CWM you can do a nandroid on your untouched system. You can always restore the nandroid if you don't like your new costum rom or if the installation crashes and "lite" bricks your phone. ;)
