If it's completely dead then it's most likely hard bricked. My phone just got hard bricked so you will need to buy a JIG of Ebay. If it's not that then try reflashing your ROM or re rooting it. If none of that works then just take your phone in too wherever you bought it from and have them fix it. Oh a JIG is a small USB that will re write it and force it into download mode.

Your phone in stock rom ? If stock rom that is suddenly dead mean bad emmc on the logic board with my experience.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KAsp3rd:
Since they are seeing the QHUSB_DLOAD (which is technically a hard brick) a simple USB jig wouldn't work, however they can attempt to use my recovery method. It's at no cost and just takes some time and reading.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] P06o:
When you attempt to restart your phone, does anything come up at all? I've been having issues over the past week, culminating in a device that won't charge, and won't complete a boot sequence. I get as far as the Samsung splash screen (and occasionally the first snippet of the ROM's splash screen) and then....a black screen and a quick buzz. Then the whole process repeats. In my case, I believe it's the power button.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Remove and reinsert battery. If it turns on by itself, you are probably right about the button.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheSoldierDude:
You're Right I believe

I went to a Samsung service center and they told me the motherboard had to be replaced.. I did some searching and found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2178484

I've come to the conclusion that it was indeed a bad emmc (Yes, I was using stock ROM).. Any thoughts?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheSoldierDude:
Nope

Nothing happens at all.. its completely dead, simply a paper weight.. a very bad one of sorts
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If it indeed is a Bad EMC then it should be In Warranty Repair as Samsung does offer that. If you didn't have Insurance that is.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheSoldierDude:
Thank you

Nope.. xD 3 months off warranty, and yes I got it repaired from Samsung.. Motherboard was replaced, $300.. :|

Thanks to everyone helping out though :D

Well my s3 (us cellular r530u), has no boot but has a red led without the battery. Is there a debricking procedure? And if so..where can i find a debrick file.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
There is for us. But you need to be in Sprints forums. Theres nothing for your device here, and I dont know what they have over there. Good luck though!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
That was 7 months ago and was done by Samsung. Motherboards were not as cheap then as they are now, and getting Sammy to do it of course will cost more. But he was also guaranteed that it wouldn't be blacklisted by buying used from unknown sources, and I'm sure the repair itself came with some sort of guarantee. Besides, he probably didn't know all his options at the time, and even so, many people are just more comfortable using official repair services and are willing to pay the extra.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sumael01:
hey man it hapenned to me too the problem is the NAND Memory the one that prevents the OS to crash taking the possibly infected process to analize it and so this memmory stas failing up to 6 months of usage of the phone and takes all the process like a virus so decides to turn off the phones for security bunt it wont turn on

Hi all. I am new to all this and the more I read the more confused I become! I bought a T-Mobile T999 with a bad IMEI. I unlocked it and am using it with my Mobilicity SIM card.Everything is working fine except for the wifi hotspot. Also the T-Mobile bloatware is getting in the way. Iwas on my way to rooting the phone when i thought to myself... would it be possible to flash the Mobilicity stock firmware from the SamMobile sight onto the phone. If this doesn't work would I be able to flash the stock TMobile firmware back to the phone? So on the T999 can I flash the Mobilicity T999VVLDMF2_T999VYVLDMF2_MCT firmware from SamMobile

Thanks to any and all who might help.

I will use now on desire only for tethering.

Is a good idea? Is better to use a router dedicated to this task?

Is there a best rom for this? Which one do you suggest?

Thanks:good:
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
If you have a huge data plan, then why not?

There is no "best ROM" for tethering. I would suggest a GB one, since JB may be unstable on a long period of time.
[Desire General] Jack4L_:
Try with some android 2.3.6-7 ROM in GB I recommend to you CM7 nightly the last one. You can download from the www.cyanogenmod.com it's very clean ROM fast&stable I was using it before change to jb 4.3 maybe cm7 is the best GB ROM and I remember that the signal quality for WiFi/3G was veeery good, hermano. Try it! )))

any idea ?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Welcome Fellow Visionaries to CyanMobileX Gingerbread 2.3.8!

​

This is a source build of CyanX - which is CM7 based with added modification from AOSP and AOKP and MORE!!!!

This goes above and beyond your standard CM7 build, added features are:

As you can see this is Gingerbread with so much ICS and Jellybean backported that it has been upgraded 2.3.8 (oh so many options and so little time!)

Notes

- I have not tried the splash screens; It may brick your device because they are form a different device, but It also may work since it is the same screen size

- Dont select any kernel it tells you to in recovery, I will be adding another test version of the rom which has darkside and other GB kernels.

- Can't really think of anything off the top of my head :P

Bugs

- Settings Won't open? (If you get this problem, please give me a logcat... I tell you how to get one somewhere in this thread)

T-Mobile has got a seperate cab for the MMS stuff, so you may have missed it. Open your settings cab with winzip or wince cabmanager to check wether mms is in there or ...... not. Didn't check the ftp for you, but your solution can be there.

Hi everyone,

So here's the deal: I'm using Skullcandy earphones and they work nicely on all devices I use except on my HTC One. The problem is they have the microphone with controller which is turning listening to music into chaos of switching between calling the last number from history, starting Google Now and playing/pausing the music. I also tried the app RemoteControl for Earphones from Play Store which helped on my Sensation, but won't do a damned thing on One. Does anybody know how to resolve that problem?

The phone is completely stock, not rooted, and running Android 4.2.2 and Sense 5.

P.S.: Please don't answer my question if you're going to tell me to buy another pair or that Skullcandy sucks.

Thanks!

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Fendulon:
So, I called AT&T today because my girlfriends battery is just plain ****. They are overnighting a new one. The weird part is, here's the information they've given me.

Item	SKU	Item	In Stock	Qty

501561	3200mAh Lithium-Ion battery.	Yes	1

and

SKU Description Qty Mfg Part Number

501561 Standard Battery 3200mAh 1 EB-B800BUBEBUS

These are from the two emails I've received.

3200mAh standard battery? I didn't know such a standard battery existed from Samsung. I know the stock GS3 battery is a 2100mAh and they offered an extended 3000mAh which I BELIEVE required an extended back. What on earth am I being shipped? I suppose I'll know tomorrow. The SKU and Mfg Part Number don't have any results on google.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rtan73:
Maybe they sent the battery for the Note 3. It has a 3200mAh standard battery.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Fendulon:
I certainly hope not! Haha. That definitely wouldn't fit in a GS3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Fendulon:
Sigh... I called because I was just feeling very suspicious. The lady did indeed send out a Galaxy Note 3 battery. I called AT&T and the guy was very understanding and nice, and confirmed my suspicion. He recognized that I had some tech knowledge. Unfortunately they actually don't have any GS3 batteries in stock at AT&T. He instead has comped my AT&T account for the price of an OEM GS3 battery plus shipping from the Samsung official website. So I guess that works out pretty well. I have about $45 knocked off my bill and I can get whatever I want with that.

I will have to either reject the FedEx delivery (doubtful, they drop and drive) or call AT&T when I get it and request a return label. Or hey, maybe I get to keep it and I'll sell it haha.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rtan73:
You might try some of the other carriers that carry the S3. They might have the battery in-store. I think that they all the US variants use the same battery, but I'm not sure.

ProximityScreenOff is similar but has less options and thus uses probably less battery.

I'm using it for about a week now and it works flawlessly. I just have to remember not to use the power button.

Slide2wake across the screen to wake the phone would be even better like I had with my S2 but it required a custom kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DennisDD78:
It`s strage that nobody hasn`t made port from Tablet Z yet! I mean double tap to wake up. Is this really so hard to do ?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
It's not so hard to do but it'll kill our battery.

I noticed great battery life on Sony ROM, stock ROM with no change at all but as soon as I change few things, MOD few apps or apply few MODs (notification bar...) battery life is seriously damaged.

You can only imagine what battery life would we have on custom kernel with lossy optimised "knock" function?!

I'm sure, if there's way and need for this feature - Sony will add it in the first place.

They realised battery life wouldn't be good enough and that's the reason they skip that - they obviously know how to do that ;)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pshdo:
It will not kill battery...

On the hox+ there is a swipe to wake feature if you flash the right kernel...

And with that it is hard to notice any battery drain at all...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
With a right kernel I'm sure it won't.

I just said it's probably problem with battery consumption and that's why Sony skipped that.

When you have quead core device with big screen you must pay attention to all apps and details because one by one (app of feature) and you will quickly have device that drains too much power.

I would like to believe that was the reason ;)

But I would surely like to have that, that's awesome feature...

It should be kernel supposed so someone should port kernel from different device - even it's Sony and it's from Z series - it's not that easy to do that.

But I can't understand why Sony don't want to include that feature in Z1 firmware/kernel?!

If it's working good on Z tables can't see a reason not to add that to Z1?!

Maybe Sony suprise us with Touch to wake in KitKat...

HTC just announced that they will release Kitkat for One in the next 30 days so maybe Sony really skip 4.3 and release 4.4 right away...
