Well, I don't believe the problem was due to a combination of things. I have a lot of programs installed, and my 8525 usually works marvelously. The only one I removed was that WiFi Companion app. Since then, I've installed others (Pie-Plus, Opera 8.60, the BandSwitch 1.16 upgrade (yes, this program is wonderful, btw), SPB Silver unitheme, and Ilium Dockware (nice little app here!). (Yes ... all that in about 4 days!). I really don't think the SW had anything to do with this failure, unless it was WiFi Companion, and I'm doubtful that THAT was the culprit.

I'm really leaning toward it being a network problem ... hopefully due to Cingular/AT&T doing upgrades.;)

But then again, that WAS a new sync cable (came with a Boxware cradle), and the problem started almost exactly at the same time I started using it, so the problem might lie there, as well. Again, I REALLY don't want to try it again to test the situation. I don't want to press my luck if it was a hardware/voltage/wiring issue.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] armedmetallica:
YEah -- that's what i was implying - can't exactly tell which particular thing solved and/or caused the problem.

I've going barebones -- i had a few thing installed like jetware, ms live, .net 2.0, and batti. Going to remove them and try again.

as a side note, i'm SHOCKED you install all those things on your device. I'm very very very very resistant cos these little apps sometimes cause more problems than they solve. i'm going to theck out the stuff you have installed, perhaps i will follow suit.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pvs:
I don't want to hijack this thread, but this is just a small subset of what I've got installed! I agree that many apps cause a lot of problems. That's why I tend to look for programs that are SOLD (i.e.: not FREE) by large software companies. This is not a guarantee, but it usually helps. I have had to hard reset once, after I got through my initial shake-out with this phone, but I have been very happy with my current configuration, and it has been pretty stable for me, too.

This is my list as we speak:

Cingular XpressMail -> Push email, a bit buggy, but usable

SPB Backup -> Gotta be crazy not to use it!

Orneta Notepad Mobile -> I need my text editor :-)

Vicsoft RViewer -> To play with Icon Resources (FREE)

ArianeSoft PPL -> I intend to play with some programming, someday.

WinAmp -> Thanks to ShoGunMark, who made it available on 8525software.com

PalmStorm Xplodus -> Cute (FREE) game DL'd from 8525software.com

RealOne Player -> Don't use it for much and might uninstall it.

Macromedia Flash 7 -> Nice to have around, but haven't really found a use, yet.

CNetX Flash Format -> One of several apps hat let me manage my 1GB Card

PIXIdoDA MRBOO -> A take-off on an old arcade game I loved. This ones ok.

Fann Software CapScrUtil -> FREE screen capture, without any frills

Lang's ChessGenius -> Gads, I'm terrible at chess!

Resco Guardians -> ShootEmUp Game I sometimes waste time with

Astraware Bejeweled 2 -> This one's pretty good, but still a time-waster

GarishKernel's Egress -> Decent newsreader

MT's TodayAgenda -> Very nice, and I thinkk it was FREE

SPB Weather -> It's only a forecast, but sometimes it's right.

SPB PocketPlus -> I like it a lot more than the Mobile Shell

fit4cat Hermes Tweaker -> A nice useful little utility

Sleuth255's PTTFix -> The reason I haven't tried the new Cing ROM

Resco Registry Editor -> Needed utility that any nerd should own

Resco Exporer -> A VERY decent file explorer

Resco FTP -> For those times when HTTP just doesn't cut-it

Google Maps -> Recently replaced MS Live Search

SK Tools -> Useful for maintenance and tweaking

Ilium Dockware -> Screensaver/slideshow/Clock/Calendar. LOVE it!

Reensoft PIEPlus -> Just testing this now, an addin for PIE. Some nice features.

SPB Silver Skins -> Using it for Calculator, dialpad, and WMP (but it doesn't appear there)

BandSwitch -> No 8525 should be without it!

Opera 8.60 -> Installed last night, bought this morning. A little slow, but wonderful

So there you have over 30 apps, and my 8525 is very stable. I DO boot it in the morning, and before I put it on it's charger for the night. I DON'T let it go to sleep while charging, but shut the backlight off and leave it on "G". I don't have freezing problems when taking it off charge in the am.

Anyway, I find this phone extremely versatile, and am not at all hesitant to try new things with it (SPB BACKUP, all the way!).

Now ... back to the previous thread....Happy to say mine hasn't been acting up anymore.

It definitly was a network problem caused by my networkprovider "One Austria" (now Orange).

After a long call with the technical support they changed some of their serversettings

Never happened again (since month)

strange symptoms

I've had the "operation failed" issue for a couple of weeks now and have tried all sorts of things to no avail:

Locking band to GSM only.

Locking band to WCDMA only.

Reflashing Black IV shadow.

trying out Back IV Majik.

Downgrading the Radio stack.

Putting radio 1.43 back on.

No sd card.

Installing no additional apps on the clean rom.

The problem persists, intermittently. The one thing that tends to freak it out more than anything is if it gets too hot (likely just a coincidence), or if I start getting dodgy signal for a moment (almost always bombs). It will occasionally indicate that it couldn't find the network (in a high signal area) and then I have to reboot repeatedly - or more likely just plough on pretending it has full signal when it really doesn't (at which point the signal meter doesn't move at all, as it normally would). The most interesting symptom by far though.....

Whenever it screws up, it always wipes my internet connection settings!!?!

I have to reinstall the T-MobileUKFixed.cab and uninstall the original package. That doesn't bring back functionality, I still have to reboot, but at least i'll be able to use internet connection sharing once I do.

The SIM works in my other phones just fine. I think I'm going to have to replace the OS with the shipped WM5 and send it back to T-Mobile. I'm struggling to do that right now because it won't flash under Hard-SPL 2, and I can't seem to get USB access through mtty in order to downgrade the bootloader. Nothing's ever easy eh!? :confused:

Just thought I'd mention it - if anyone has any suggestions I'd be very grateful :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] gondalguru:
the operation failed....

I started getting this problem a week ago. Since then I am frequently missing calls even if the signal bar is at 3 to 4... Also I can't make call on first try. When I dial it gives message the operation failed and then phone tries to reestablish connection with tower and then it works fine...

Getting very annoying. Have no idea what to do.

I have flashed 4 different rom's and 5 different radio roms in last 5 days but it is a consistant problem with each and every rom. currently using the lastest att official rom with radio 1.54.07.00

Reading this forum it looks like this may be a network issue.

I am using 8525 for past 14 months without any such problem until upto last week.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pedro2k:
Try this as it has worked for me.

Go to advance config>data connections>gprs auto attach

disable it

My problem is that I go in and out of a 3g area. So when the phone looses the signal and acquires it again, I think since it can't find 3g on start of the radio, the phone goes mental. Since I don't need the data connection when I'm driving, I don't think I'm missing out on anything.

Try it and let us know if this works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cyberscribe:
get rid of that radio. The 154 variants have been identified as flakey. reflash to something above 1.35 and below 1.50 for better stability. I flashed 1.48 twice and went back to the official AT&T ROM. I figured all the extra functionality was worthless if the phone don't work.

I nearly lost my radio permanently using the hacked radios, if this phone fails I want to be able to get a warranty replacement.

The one thing that really frightens me is the possibility that Hard-SPL V7 will void my warranty. Hopefully the test will never be necessary.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] sprintuser1977:
I had made up my mind to stick with the 3.

Crazy enough, my main decision is based on the camera and video.

Played with the 4 in Best Buy and every pic and video was virtually perfect, and watched many videos and reviews.

At my daughter's birthday gathering today, half my 3 pics were crap. Sucked.

While not my only selling point, the cam is important to me due to taking pics and Vids of my kids.

There are of course other points ( root, charging faster, l am a phone ho, etc.) so I know I will not be dissappointed.

Going tomorrow to give down payment, and this time unlocked, month to month, no Verizon to deal with.

I know most of you could not care less, so skip the party pooper posts ( mods excluded of course, do whatever you like!).

Just trying to express my feelings as l am the only person in my whole family who is a tech whore, so my tech talk is limited.

This place needs as much life as possible anyway.

Trying to get wife to take over the 3 (she has S4) to move her on up.

*couldn't

Anyway, good decision to go Note 4. I had a couple of Note 3's over the last year, and neither of them really seemed as great as the Note 2 did when I had that. The speaker in particular was just downright awful, as was the in-hand feel.

Note 4 seems to justify the whole 2 year upgrade thing as far as improvements/refinements go. Although I anticipate the Note 5 will see a significant form factor redesign following from the redesigned S6.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sprintuser1977:
LOL. sometimes the S-pen does not translate correctly. I will fix.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] skibadee:
How was the lighting in the store when you tested it, and have you tried it yet in the same lighting scenarios as your note 3?

This really interests me as my pics come out blurry on my note 3 when in medium/indoor lighting and taking pics of my son, happens when he moves slightly.

Until now I'd heard the note 4 is not much better, this rekindles my interest in staying with samsung and getting a N4 if what you say is correct. Was going to stick with my note 3 or see what the nexus 6 offered.

Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sprintuser1977:
lighting was comparable. Some were great, some bad. About half and half.

Aside from playing with the 4 myself, I have read and watched videos by the tons and almost all have noted a good improvement in pics and video.

Guess I will know myself Friday!

Dang waiting. I am like a 5 year old at Christmas

[Galaxy Note 4 General] skibadee:
Err....

Thanks for replying but...

How can they have been perfect, if only half and half were good?

I'm confused lol
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sprintuser1977:
Oh, I was referring to my Note 3 pics being half and half. My bad for not clarifying.

All the pics I took with the 4 were good.

Kicking Deuce on the Beast, Note 3
[Galaxy Note 4 General] skibadee:
Thanks for clearing that up, back to my original question, what was the lighting like in the shop when you tested the N4?

My n3 takes great shots outdoors and in a well lit room. Use it indoors with no sunshine or bright lighting and it's a POS.

I'm pretty sure when I tried the n3 in a shop before buying it online, it took great shots too.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sprintuser1977:
Well, being a Best Buy it was pretty good lighting.

But I am still thinking I made a good move reading reviews and watching Note 4 camera videos.

A little improvement (which seems to be the worst scenario) is still good for me.

I am a picture taking maniac of my family and pets.

Plus, although very important, the camera Is not my only reason (unlocked, no contract).

If it turns out to be less of an improvement than I thought I can always take it back. I will keep my 3 until I am sure.

How are your pics in the dark?

Kicking Deuce on the Beast, Note 3
[Galaxy Note 4 General] skibadee:
Thanks I'll prob do the same. Im going to see what the nexus 6 has to offer first, then buy either and send them back if the camera is as poor indoors as n3. Don't really take shots in dark.

From experience, replacing SystemUI while booted into Android will usually result in FCs before it even finishes being copied, and before you can set the permissions. Which means you can't do much until you flash it properly in recovery, fixing SystemUI's permissions in the updater-script.
