Does not turn on on vibrates and auto restart

Rom successfully installed and eorks later i put sim and restart and phone .It turn on automatically and after samsung logo it starts vibrating continously then restart but when i tries to enter recovery mode it automatically restarts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
You need to give more details please.

- What recovery are you using?

- What GApps package?

- Did you repartition your device?

Full wipe, and try flashing only the ROM, without restoring any backup data, and see how it goes.

Or as I said, stuck power button.

Thank you so much for you hard job and support for this phone & ROM. Only one question...usb computer connection has been fixed on this build? Because the previous builds dosn't work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
We might see the 8660 devices return, not sure. It actually is being discussed. ;)

Please try Mass Storage mode. My Skyrocket send to come up as an MTP device under 1 icon in Windows Explorer. I recently had to uninstall and reinstall it.

The Hercules could be different, not sure, but I'll see if I can find anything.

Try out this latest build and let us all know. I don't own a Hercules :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kingaa19:
The MTP/USB Connection needs re-working. It's hard to have a daily driver ROM when the ROM won't recognize that the phone is plugged in to a computer. Everytime I go to enable MTP, it'll pop up and say, "USB is disconnected." Supposedly the fix for this to disable USB debugging in Developer options, but all that does is soft reboot my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
There was a build or two where MTP wasn't working, but it should be on the latest one. There are also a lot of variables that you didn't describe in your case. What operating system? 32 or 64 bit system? What drivers did you install?

I had to uninstall my Skyrocket (and the drivers) and re-do them to get mine to connect. On the latest builds I've posted, mine connects just fine, and yes with a clean flash.

Try installing Samsung Kies 2.6 and the drivers should be included with that. You want the older version (for devices before September 2013). Depending on your O/S, you might need to disable the driver signing checks to allow it to install. Windows is picky these days. :)

Here's my Skyrocket installed with Candy 5 latest and Storage options set to UMS:

------------------------------

*** Install unsigned drivers in Windows 7

Disable User Account Control (UAC) and reboot

Go to Start and type cmd in the search box

Right-click on cmd.exe (should be at the top of the list) and select Run as administrator

In the newly created command prompt box, type the following (pressing enter after each line):

bcdedit /set testsigning on
bcdedit /set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

Note: DDISABLE is NOT a typo!

Install the problematic driver and reboot

Your driver should now load successfully and you may now enable UAC!

-------------------------------

*** Return driver signing check setting for Windows 7 to their original values

Turn off Test Mode Win 7:

bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF

Running 6/21 ROM, MTP/UMS still doesn't work

PC: Windows 8.1 64-Bit, using Samsung Kies 2.6 with latest Samsung Drivers

Phone: Hercules (SGH-T989) T-Mobile

ROM: candy5-release.v2.5.6-20150621-UNOFFICIAL-hercules.zip

GApps: None Installed (Installed just the ROM to test USB Computer Connection)

I connect my phone to my PC and my PC doesn't recognize it. I go to Settings>Storage>USB Computer Connection, and a message pops up and says, "USB is now disconnected," when I haven't touched the USB cable. It doesn't even take me to the selection page to select between MTP, PTP, and UMS. I have looked around online and it said to disable Android Debugging. So what I did was enable Developer Options and go to the Android Debugging section and disable it. Next thing I know my phone soft reboots. This is a the only issue I have with the ROM. I would be using this ROM as a daily driver if it wasn't for this issue. It's a huge deal breaker since I'm always transferring files back and forth.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hankaaron57:

Device Manager Fix Doesn't Work

Followed your recent advice from the main thread. Going to device manager and uninstalling USB devices under USB Controllers didn't work, again running everything the same from the previous post. My daily driver is actually the LP version of PA and it connects fine, even though it has the same issue this ROM has where you try to go the USB Computer Connection options and it just says, "USB now disconnected".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] NoSpamDan:
Wow you folks came out if the wood work![emoji6]

Looking into possible RIL changes that might help.

Your version of Kies might be too new. Our devices were manufactured before like September 2013, requiring an older version of Kies (and drivers too). Try [MENTION=4057370]vincom[/MENTION]'s drivers as mentioned after the next quote... USB charging should be fixed in the next build I'll post. :)

Visit post 169 in the discussion thread (sorry, on mobile) for a link to some alternate instructions, and you can find good drivers in [MENTION=4057370]vincom[/MENTION]'s 1-stop Sticky for the Skyrocket, which is linked in my signature. Not sure if mobile will sign the same.

Nope, no need. Just make sure you have a good recovery and full wipe... Instructions are in the main thread, post 2, I think.

Looking at the RIL as mentioned above...

Cheers!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] HunnyPi:
This is weird...

Okay, so ever since I installed my new Candy ROM (which is FANTASTIC by the way) I have had little to no issues with the exception of data connection (already addressed and waiting patiently for fix) and the occasional (but very seldom) random reboot. But I have a new problem that is kinda irritating. I cant download ANY apps. None. No apps, apk, google play apps, nothing. I haven't changed anything since flashing my candy so I'm not sure if this is something I did or and issue with the rom or gapps that I flashed. Please tell me what information you need in order to assist. I can send a screenshot of my stats if that will help.

I live in India and i am planing to buy a new smart phone within a week or two . my budget is 22,000 Rs = 350$ . The current issue is i am really confused in two ways .

The first one is choosing between two phones i initially thought about buying Asus ZenFone 2 ZE551ML but then going through all the review stuff and comparisons i had another phone in my mind " OnePlus One 64GB" .

Then i decided to go for OnePlus One 64GB variant. so then the second glitch appeared , :(

When i come to know about the upcoming cool smartphones in June . i was really confused i another way weather its going to be worth buying this phone now or wait for another two months and see those upcoming phone are worth waiting . So please help me to decide weather to buy a smartphone now or wait for another two months

And before flash RUU did not see active version on phone (showed only version that should be updatet on phone) I have suspicion that this phone is made for Asia market but i cant fine RUU other then Europe.

Before I tired this with "Unlocked" and then i relocked it and tried with "Relocked"

Now I am trying to find out how to make "SD gold card" and see if i can flash some new ROM with it. but I am very new at this so I need some time. Is it posible this phone is Hard Bricked with bad root?

[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcjunky:
If you can get into recovery I think you can get back to a working phone.

1) I would flash twrp if you don't have it already installed. Put a copy of twrp backup of a previous stock ROM for your 816 version on a SD card. Either by USB if you can or remove the SD from phone and do it manually @ your PC(you may need to mountsd card when you're done).

2) In twrp go to the restore menu and make sure you can see the backup you want to restore.

3) Do an advanced wipe dalvik cache, system, cache, data and internal storage. You can even format data if you want.

4) Restore twrp backup.

Hopefully you have a working phone at this point and can follow steps to upgrade via RUU then OTA.

All of the major components, camera, radio, bluetooth, data, etc have all worked just fine. I did have one microscopic notice from Google Play services, 10 seconds after boot up on Oxygen, which would not appear again unless I rebooted the phone. These all on clean installs. I did one dirty instal on CM and could not get through the FC's on Google, so went to a clean install

For phone with issues, what's your opinion on why Oxygen and or CM/COS 12 installs do not function well after the install?

Hi,

Over the last few weeks I have been working on an app called Helix. Helix lets you manage your Facebook Pages, Tumblr, and Twitter accounts. Falcon Pro and Buffer helped inspire the UI design.

I want to get the core experience done first before I start adding features, so I am going to be doing alpha testing for a few weeks. This is what I have implemented currently:

Multiple accounts (Facebook Pages, Twitter, Tumblr)

Full Twitter Client

Schedule updates to post at a later time

Offline mode. You can like, comment, favorite, reblog, and retweet posts when you are not connected to the Internet. These can be scheduled, or uploaded immediately as soon as you have a connection

Bit.ly support for URL shortening

Multiple material design themes

By version 1 full tablet support will be added.
