[HTC One X] scottes30:
I had previously installed the gingerbread keyboard app on my device. It recently stopped working and now I am unable to unlock my phone. When I slide the ring to open it says enter pin but no keyboard pops up. I am trying to save all my data, music pictures etc. But I am unable to sync to PC while phone is locked. Please tell me somebody knows a way to get my stuff without doing a factory reset which would likely wipe everything!!
[HTC One X] desmond1303:
Wipe data/factory reset from recovery... That way you'll keep everything on the virtual sd card, but loose all settings and apps if you wanna do a wipe...

But there has to be a way to enable the keyboard without wiping...
[HTC One X] scottes30:
So a factory reset will not wipe data like pictures and music files?

The HTC tech said there was about a 50 50 chance it might.

I was wondering

​

if there was an external wired keyboard I could attach to enter my PIN
[HTC One X] desmond1303:
If you would buy an USB OTG cable you could plug in your PC's Keyboard
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
UPDATE: parts4repair.com sells fully working parts!

I have recently replaced the DC In (charger port) board, and as many have experienced, I am having severe degradation of cellular reception.

Obviously the 'OEM' part that I have purchased isn't a real OEM, of this wouldn't be happening.

I am now posting this thread in hope that I can be directed to a seller in the United States that has ACTUAL Samsung factory parts, so I can fix this phone properly.

If you don't have an answer to where I could buy either (1) an actual Samsung part for a reasonable price or (2) a non Samsung part that won't degrade my cellular quality, then please don't respond.

Thank you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
call several service centres of samsung if they have the part, and how it costs.

Or order from parts4repair.com, I think noone has had a broken one from there as of yet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Does anyone have an update for this? I have now bought TWO counterfeit boards where I lose reception... Samsung america doesn't sell parts or even repair international phones...

Anyone have a suggestion?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bai1101:
In my country (malaysia) the samsung center not allowed me to purchase part only :mad:

I get it from reputable local shop so far so good. Cost Around RM50.00 = 15 USD +-
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Im in the USA. Would that shop ship here?

I have ordered this part from TWO separate people now, each shipped from China. Both of them i lose 1/2 of my cellular reception.

I wouldn't even care about losing reception, but here where my house is in Los Angeles Suburb, I barely get reception, so before with the original part I had only 1-2 bars. Now, i struggle just to get any reception. (0 bars)

I just want a REAL samsung part. its like pulling my teeth trying to find one
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaiDai:
Even if a company or a member claims that they'll give you an original part, you'll never be sure of it until you test it in your device and get your old reception quality.

So I assume that it would be easier (but sadly more expensive) to get it repaired by Samsung.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I would be willing to consider that, but unfortunately Samsung USA refuses to repair any non-US phones. I just got off the phone with them a couple hours ago.

I just ordered 3 more boards from all different people via amazon.com... Hopefully one of them will be OK...luckily they are only $7-8 each... One is called 'refurbished' so hopefully it will be a part pulled from a device instead of a new Chinese manufacture. Otherwise I don't know what to do at this point.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThaiDai:
I hate this policy.

But since yesterday when I read about the "new" trick with regional limited devices Samsung became a no-go-company for me.

I need to switch without limitations between Thai and German Sim cards for our Samsung devices. Samsung doesn't want this anymore. So I do not want Samsung anymore.

Luckily I switched already to the Nexus 7 and I am very happy with it until now (big screen, no bloat, 1-day-battery life without any restrictions, fast, and now with a bluetooth keyboard and fitting cover it is nearly perfect).

Good luck with your orders.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bai1101:
dont waste ur time. no worth getting here cause there r from china too.

from survey around my country and china shooping site. i can say the one 10usd or higher give less problem compare the cheaper one.

That's what solved mine. Now, I have a GT-N7000 international...if you have the at&t version, it might be different, I don't know.

I use my international one on Straight Talk, using the at&t towers.

http://www.parts4repair.com/samsung-galaxy-note-charger-port-module/

I went through about 4 different ones from various vendors, and this one solved my signal problems.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
OK well I have one coming from parts4repair too so I hope it works!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It worked great here and others that ordered. Get the dust cover for usb hole can recommend it.

Same revision part you ordered right, better double check it m8
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I only saw one that was compatible with this device. Its been shipped 20 days ago now, so i guess i'll find out when it comes.

Whats the difference with revisions?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
I ordered one too, will report back when it has arrived in a month or so. Thanks for the hint, I hope.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yeah I had to deal with so many replacements... And when this one came it just worked.

Be Sure to take the white part off BOTH sides of the sticky conductive tape so that it adheres to the METAL PART of the phone frame when you install it...

I had to deal with no reception for over a month but now I'm good as new again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
Does the replacement come with a piece of tape which I have to attach? I saw this tape on my original, the bad part I have now came without tape.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yes. It comes with the tape.

You can try something in the meantime but it probably won't work, but some report it does. Take the tape from the original and put it in the same place on the replacement.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
I threw away the original part because I thought the replacement worked. My phone charged again and i didn't know about the network issue since I was at home connected to wifi. Thanks for your advices, I'm looking forward to trying the other replacement. Maybe I'll try to find some tape tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
The part i ordered from Parts4repair.com works. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soiledhalo:
Just ordered mine. I hope I'm as successful as you guys.

I did get one that was giving me 75% reception, compared to the first one I bought which was around 10%!!

I really want the original antenna though for when I'm far away from a tower I get no bars :( .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] android-incredible:
I never use titanium backup, but I waned tried because I have a game called candy crush and I don't want to start over again. What I have to do?, just back up the game and then after put the new rom just look for the game on titanium backup and that it? I'm going to update my current Ron hyperdrive RLS 8.1 to 9. thanks..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Well 2 things, if you have it synced to your Facebook then it restores on its own.

But without Facebook, yes. Backup app AMD data. Then look for your backup (try to backup to your SD card in case you erase internal memory)

But if you haven't gotten far in candy crush, you might as well sync with Facebook, you can't go past level 40 or something unless you ask 3 friends for tickets

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
I sent my new Nexus 7 back due to massive, intermittent screen flickering and I was wondering if anybody else has done the same?

The status of repair is:

"Product was repaired OK and is now packed ready for shipping or pick up."

I am wondering if they even fixed anything or if they are just sending it back. I was hoping they would replace it altogether but it doesn't that way.

Thanks for any responses.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] swisstourist:
Probably they changed the whole screen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] p282:
Most tablet manufacturers will just replace the tablet. Because of the amount of time it will take. Unless someone actually works for the warehouse issuing out Nexus 7 replacements you will not get a solid answer. Just check the serial number when you get your Nexus 7 back.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
Thanks guys and I hope you are right p282!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
...and, most likely, it will be a refurbished unit unless no returned units are available.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
I guess I can deal with a refurbished unit as long as it works.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
Some folks are touchy about them. If the company actually goes through the returned units and really does refurbish them, they can be better than new. Unfortunately, a lot of companies like to power them up, see that something is displayed and call them "refurbished". Dunno where ASUS fails in that spectrum...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
I'm hoping they actually did change something because there is a intermittent issue and they probably didn't mess with it long enough to notice. I guess we shall see..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
Well it's on it's way back after only two days in repair. I'm not feeling to confident.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
Agreed. Check it out thoroughly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
I'm just hoping they didn't send the same one back because in my opinion there is a hardware related screen issue. The problem is somewhat intermittent so they could've missed it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] flight777:
Same here, RMAed it because of light bleed and dead pixels. It was on the status "REPAIR IN PROGRESS" since Friday morning (sent to the EU repair centre in Czech). Now it just turned to: Product was repaired OK and is now packed ready for shipping or pick up.

Crossing my fingers that they actually repaired/replaced it :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RPK925:
Does anyone know for sure that if you send you Nexus into Asus for a warrant problem, do they send you back a refurbished unit or a brand new one?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
Mine should be here tomorrow so I'll let you know the details.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] danvee:
No. There's no knowing 'for sure' unless they tell you (and even then).

There's no stated policy concerning it, so it's entirely case by case.

If you send a unit for repair, be sure to record the serial #.

That's the only way you'll know for certain.

The refurbished ones are generally indistinguishable from new.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PJ Clifford:
Most places will send a refurbished unit unless there are absolutely no refurbished ones available.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
Last month I sent my 2012 32GB N7 back to ASUS for warranty repair. I had been living with bad external speakers for a couple months. While transitioning from portrait to landscape when I was watching a video the tablet froze up and started making a high pitched squealing noise. Only thing I could do is long press the power button. Long story short...a little over 2 weeks after sending the N7 away I got the same tablet back with new speakers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] flight777:
What a fail company Asus is...

Got my tablet back with "TEST OK/NO TROUBLE FOUND" so they call 7 dead pixels NO TROUBLE FOUND?? They pulled this **** on my before with the Prime so they are in for another discussion... WTF do they employ monkeys there??
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gottifour:
I got my Nexus 7 back from repair yesterday and is not the same unit I sent in. I can't tell if it is a refurbished unit or new but either way I'm happy it's a different one.... for now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jmdearras:
No Warranty in the USA on Tablets.

I send mine in with RMA for random reboot and deaf NFC $22 to ship it registered trackable. They returned it the next day showing nothing done, and splunger damage to the LCD bezel. I went online to the RMA chat, and they told me they reloaded the OS (I had done that!) and noted scuffs and damage to the unit. A blatant lie.

The repair facility is not ASUS, it's some hack shop that has to profit from the repairs. So as far as I can tell, there is no warrenty on ASUS tablets. :rolleyes:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] stewartk:
I call Asus as my screen had red marks under the LCD . they sent me a prepaid postage slip with ups and returned it within a 2 days. I can't fault the service

Take a picture of your n7 before you send it back

Nam Huy Linux http://namhuy.net
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jmdearras:
Where did you send it, and who did you call? I had to pay shipping in, and as I said. they did nothing to fix the complaints, not even the NFC. Asus does not repair units in the USA, they hire it out.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] stewartk:
I just looked on the Asus website and found the UK call centre they arranged everything. I don't think it was a asus factory where it went back to but I couldn't complain with the service. They changed the LCD and something to do with the GPS not sure why as the GPS was working. U must have crap 3rd party repairers over there.
[Moto X Q&A] spyz88:
I have an AT&T Moto X. I've noticed that EVERY time I turn on my screen the WiFi indicator shows data being uploaded and downloaded. I installed a data manager and it said Adblock Plus was eating up a ton of data. I uninstalled and rebooted. However anytime I turn the phone on the data is uploading and downloading in the background.

Nothing is keeping the CPU awake as its mostly in deep sleep mode. I also checked wakelocks and the only ones are the nlpwakelock which I assume is for the "OK, Google Now" feature. That shouldn't be doing it because I believe the data isnt sent to google until you actually ask it a question.

Not sure what else to do. Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT: Also noticed in data manager that "Android OS services" data has been creeping up. Its only 187kb but it seems like that might be the culprit? Not sure what to do about it though.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgegebbett:
Hello!

I have a pretty bad situation going on with my phone. A couple of days ago I got a new battery for it off eBay, and I also flashed ParanoidAndroid 3.97. Around this time the phone kept crashing, the screen would freeze and then nothing. I tried doing a factory reset, and this fixed it for a while. Today it froze, so I turned it off, and it wouldn't boot back into android. I reflashed the ROM, and a load of other ones, but it refuses to boot at all. The closest it gets is the "finishing boot" stage of Android is upgrading and then it just reboots. I am now at a loss.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can provide extra details if you need it.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Use the original battery, not ebay one. Flash an official stock 4.1.2 rom then factory reset before booting, check for any error messages in recovery.

If it still freezes before booting finishes then probably needs a new motherboard.

Also, don't pull battery or turn off while it's frozen -it's usually trying to deal with bad memory blocks and should resume if left long enough.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgegebbett:
Thanks for the advice. Is it possible that motherboard issues could have been caused by plugging it into my ASUS TF700 wall charger? I can't believe that Samsung would let that be a thing that could damage it and I only did it once but still.

Will try out your tips ASAP

Thanks

I have an arc s - unlocked bootloader

I used to have it rooted, CWM installed, and run jelly bean (cm10),

At some point it stopped working, not even charging - no led light - nothing

I left it plugged in a charger for a couple of days and I finally got a blinking red light. Tried to start it - 3 red blinks - no vibration - nothing.

After another couple of days I've see the green led on (charged?!?) - happy but when I tried to start it I had no vibration and the screen went blank - in a loop having only what looks like the backlit light on.

I managed to put it in flash mode and flash it successfully with either 4.0.2 (GB) or 4.1.A - 4.1.B (ICS) butt when trying to start it I got the same loop with the backlit screen - off - backlit screen - off, etc.

Can I still fix it?
