Guys!!!

Looks like O2 has made differrent hardware alongwith the Asia ROM.I too use it on bike heavily....may not be at the speeds as mentioned above ,but 100 kms a day...about 1-2 hrs of GPRS, NO GPS, 3 Hrs of talk tme...with environmental condtions, most of them dusty, varying temperatures and other harsh conditions.But...here XDA 2s working fine....no such above complaints..

I like Blue Angle and I must admit thatn the hardware is excellent and is more stable than all of the HTC devices so far... :lol:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Nazeroth:
Mine comes from asia originally....

I bought mine in Malaysia (extremelly expensive compared to what you find in Ebay this days)

I paid the equivalent to 850 euros for it !

only to discover that is the same device that goes 2nd hand in ebay for 300 !!!!! (The names thing !!!! ) how can you guess that a qteck 9090 is an XDA IIs, which also is a Blue Angel, which also is a PDA2K bla bla ....

Atop whistling screen, constant crashes, loose styolus and the no sound in call problem, my XDA2s has scratched the kyyboard through normal use. It must be too tight or something.

Definately a beta. I'm surprised this passed EC quality control.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] 2 phat:
Im from the Philippines and I got my IIs a few weeks ago, Im a N9210 user for 4 years and I was thinking of getting a 9500, but the deciding factor was the stylus which the 9500 lacks since I was looking for a wifi Phone and the stylus was important for my use. so I opted for a IIs. THe main problem with my IIs now is the stability, as what many complain about!!!! the "no sound" problem is a real pain, but I still have hope for the IIs thanks to this site!!!

BTW i still have the old ROM version, Im afraid of upgrading coz I might have more problems than benefits.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Nazeroth:
Upgrade upgrade

2 path...\

Most of the probs go away when u use the beast in corporate mode with latest rom upgrade....

Hello guys,

I have long heard of whistling screens but never really understood what its really about - until last night. I heard it! It is sooo damn annoying. If I send my BA to i-mate Dubai, do they replace it for free? What are the costs? Please, if anyone can answer ASAP because I have under 1 month of warranty.

Thanks a lot.

I never experience this "whistling sound" at all.. Im happy with my BA. 'no sound" problem? I just upgraded to the latest Radio and CE rom.. I tried also the WM 5.0, butI decided to go back to SE..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] scudzilla:
no probs at all

I have had my 2s for a whole year now. I have never really experienced any problems with it. (Except for the scratches and lost stylus pens though). I've yet to experience software problems and the so-called whistling screen. I, too, have tried upgrading to wm5 but I did not like the changes. I'm running on '03 SE with my own cooked extrom. :lol:

I like my 2s overall.

So if it's sooo bad what's good Pocket PC phone then, tell me, so I can decide...which to buy, I need a quad band, and one that is 100% perfect.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] TheDen:
1st post..

*Some users report that the screen starts whistling after 1 month or so of use

- Havent ever heard it

*Bluethoot under performing (actually I never been able to use the headset)

- I noticed the BT power was quite low, where I held the phone made a huge difference.

*Wifi Under powered (some blame the antenna location for both BT and WIFI)

- Had no problem. I use WiFiFoFum and pick up signals quite some distance away.

*When on the bike craddle camera and record buttons constantly pressed by craddle grip (creating eternal lag)

- Camera button is in a silly spot. I have Battery Back Pro which has a program called Power Buttons, I can set it so the camera only starts when I hold the button for a set amount of time instead of it activating instantly.

*Power button apparently dies easily

- Had no trouble, mind you, I turn off the pda with an on screen button unless im just checking the time...

*No data extension, so no possibility to use CF backpack

- Dissapointing but I didnt need it.

*Aparently unstable device in overall (some users report daily resets)

- I found that if I muted the sound with Betaplayer, sometimes the phone remained muted. I have now unlinked betaplayer from the main volume control.

- I use quite a lot of programs. After I decide what packages I want, I hard reset the device and then install the desired programs. I keep the registry clean and usually peform a soft reset every few days. I run a few programs that arent designed for the OS im running Ver 4.21.1088 (Build 15045.2.6.0) so I expect some hassles. I also run emulators.

*Over billing of GPRS due to crappy implementation

- I have GPRS problems with vodafone, when they are (if ever!) sorted Ill see if my Blue Angel has a problem..

*Stylus fall off the handheld (already lost 1 and dropped the 2nd several times)

- I use a full sized pen with a built in stylus as well. Mine doesnt fall out. Its rarely upside down.

*lack of support from the manufacturer (almost al updates are cooked ROMS (kiss the cook)

- Found roms online, took a while to get the right one. The one I WANT is a LINUX one!

*Lack of accesories

- The GPS unit is too expensive as well.

*hard to find accesories due to the millions of names under the same machine is commercialized

- Thats what the nets for..

*2.5 mm headphone jack

- Sucky.

*sub performant IR port (also on the side not in front)

- I use BT, WIFI or the cradle.

*Short Battery life

- Eh? Not on mine. A friends XDA is craploads shorter. I get up to 5 days, depending on usage.

Most who have seen my unit (and have a pda) want to get something close to what I have. Id reccomend it.

I havent had any hassles with it really. I have always had pdas from the 1st ones on the market.

Had a newton, 2 cassiopeias, psion revo and 5mx, a sharp (cant remember the model), some other sharp palm ripoff and now the XDA IIs/Blue Angel.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Gajet:
Got to say I was very unhappy with my BlueAngel. I was lucky to not get the whistling screen for 6 months, but when it finally arrived it was amazingly irritating.

The uniderectional sound bug was unbelievable that it appears unfixable by ROM updates. It was work roundable by either leaving BT constantly on or having BTTray not fire up at Startup and resetting the device after every BT use.

It needed resetting everyday anyway to stop slow-down or crashes, however still managed to crash on occaisions.

Good things about the BA, well I was able to sell it to recover part of the money I forked out on getting a Universal. Money well spent.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xplode:
First of all i have just 2 bugs with my BA, the WIFI of course (crappy antenna) and that construction is made that the plastic part below the keyboard is scratched from sliding up and down

i have no problems with display, sound , and bluetooth

Blueangel is good device for the people that know how to use it, i have it for about a year and I am still hapy with it
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mobilecat:
starting to fail

I have had my mda3 for 15 months of an 18 months contract and it hasnt been to bad.

I had it replaced twice in the first few months as it completely died but the third one has been ok.

As a device I love its functionality but it isnt as stable as I would like. The only problem I have had is the occasional hard reset spontaniously.

MY bluetooth goes through stages of not working at all too.

I have a hunch that my power button may be dying too.

I am negotiating an upgrade to be finalised after two days. I have had tmobile problems with customer service and so they are doing there best to keep me. Hopefuly I will be able to get a variotwo for not too much as I already have a good contract deal on webnwalk pro _heres hoping.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muffintastic:
Hey y'all.

So many threads ago I posted up on how to root a SGS2 I900P, which in the end I did no problems. The ONLY problem I encounted where I'd flash a different ROM and wanted to restore back to my factory loaded Orange UK rom, which when I restored it with no problems it just went through the 'boot loop' phase. I read up that this is caused due to a faulty emmc 'bricking bug' and luckily it was only "soft bricked".

Cut the long story short I managed to re-flash the Orange (UK) carrier firmware (after many USB cable changes and port swaps and fails) via Odin and retain my previously installed apps and so on and had to re-root. Is there a method or some sort of fix for the emmc bug issue for future wipes/restores ?

Something new I learnt in all that process too,
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMasterOfToast:
To avoid brickbug is by flashing JB 4.1.2. (good alternative!)

But if you really like ICS then i suggest you move back to 4.0.3. There is no avoiding brickbug on 4.0.4.

If you have rooted it, you can check with 'Brickbug check' app on google play, to see if you have sane (or insane) chip (brickbug or not), cause most custom kernels and roms have found a solution to this bug, and use it on their roms/kernels. Which means on those you can safely wipe and restore etc.. (but check brickbug app first on google play)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Yep. Don't wipe a rooted phone running 4.0.4. And if you're really paranoid, don't even wipe a non-rooted phone running 4.0.4 (Entropy mentioned at least one case he knew of where someone borked their phone doing a wipe on a phone running 4.0.4 via stock Android recovery, tho it seems to be very rare).

The TL;DR is don't run rooted stock 4.0.4 if you mess with your phone in any way.

I know that's not a fix, but that's because there isn't one. Some chips aren't susceptible to the bug; there's an app floating around here somewhere/Google Play where you can check which chip you have (seems to be more that are susceptible).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Your 1st paragraph is a load of crap.Bootloop has nothing to do with "brickbug".More like by you not running kernel cleaning script,or not factory resetting before/after flashing a new rom.

As mentioned by others,just dont have 4.0.4 running on your phone.So you are still left with over 100 custom/stock roms to choose from........lol
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Was the backup of JB? Or ICS? OP doesn't say. If it was JB, I'd be willing to bet that the bootloop was due to an attempt to restore the stock rom, but without restoring preload.

Sent from a galaxy far, far away
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Im not sure Hopper.I am leaning towards the restore would be "cancelled" due to not being complete,rather than it succeeding leading to bootloop.

But hes not said.

And he cant get "factory" rom with a restore as it didnt come with cwm lol.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muffintastic:
Sorry to clear things up.. I updated it to 4.1.2 via Kies many months ago. I used PhilZ method to root, no problem. Few months down the line since then I put LiquidSmooth 2.4 (few days ago) then restored a backup from PhilZ recovery and put 4.1.2 and everything back on no problem. Then restarted the phone and it when into a boot loop of the Orange and Samsung logo.

I'm not stupid as I've rooted my own SGS3 and Samsung Galaxy ACEs etc, Just forgotten to put that info in lol and yes I always use the Factory Reset to install a new rom.

And yes when I managed to get it restored from this so called boot loop (by putting 4.1.2 Orange UK firmeware back on via Odin) the EMMC brick bug is present as i've checked via an app via Google Play. My overall goal is to eliminate this problem or temp fix so I can put different roms on and if I don't like them recovery back to the latest restore without issues.

Are we on the same line now ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
And as we've said, you can't eliminate the problem. You can avoid the problem by not running 4.0.4 stock roms. It's really quite simple, but like a lot of people here you're trying to make it complex when there's no need to.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreshbozo:
help me out here please

ok its a long story so i better get started... my friend had his phone rooted and installed a jelly bean version of Paranoid android and he wanted to put kitkat on it, he downloaded the cm11 latest nightly and told me to flash it i proceed to flash the phone but it failed and showed me "error status 7" so the phone couldnt get neither into the previous pa nor in the cm11... after some research and messing with the META INF stuff to sol the status 7 thing i found out that the problem was that he wasnt using a kitkat compatible recovery... i installled it and finally got to flash cm11.. that didnt came out as you may thought the phone showed it had -15246384352 % of battery made a freking glitch when the sreen rotated and it wouldnt recognize either of the sd cards (internal memory or external sd card) so i couldnt flash it again, wipe data/cache wouldnt solve the problem either... i turn into our ol friend odin and flashed stock JB wich worked perfectly except that i had the same issue with the memories... used philz to root the phone again, the try to format /system /data /emmc to check if that was the problem annnnd ta da the phone wont boot :silly: odin keeps failing to flash stock again and i dont jknow what to do....

sorry for the long post but i guess that you might need alll the info you could get for helping me...

thanks a lot:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stefan2142:
Here is my situation.

I had 4.1.2 JB. Installed CM11 M8 and CWM_6.0.4.7(coming previously from Siyah) at the end of July. In the beginning of October my phone just shut down. That happened before on the same and previous rom so I wasn't worried. I turned it on and phone was in bootloop. That was strange because the last time that happened I installed Chainfire. So bootloop without any cause..that was strange. I tried making a backup before flashing the ROM. But I got an error. I can't remember but I can dig it somewhere if you want it. I tried then flashing recovery(bad idea) and Odin again reported an error. When I restarted phone I noticed that my Recovery mode was gone. Just gone and with no solution on how to restore it. I tried numerous methods OMAP drivers, heimdall, .pit file method but nothing. So I brought my sgs2 to the store where I bought it and they concluded that it was bad eMMC chip.

Now, your problem reminds me of mine because Odin wouldn't want to flash anything without an error(well, not exactly anything, I managed to flash some partition using Heimdall but it was not sufficient) but it doesn't have to be.

What version of cwm were you using?
