can someone please help me figure out what the deal is with my phone, it's been working great minus the fact it wont work with activesycn anymore, but today i was at my friends using wifi and surfing the net and using Remote Desktop and it locked up, i rebooted it with the reset button and it sits at the Windows Mobile splash screen, for 45+mins, i havent waiting longer than that, i noticed if i pull the battery, sim, SD out and let it sit, put it all back together, press all the buttons, turn it back on and press buttons while is coming on, itll come on, dont know why i have to press stuff lol but its working, and its done this twice, if my activesync worked i'd re-flash it but this rom hasnt been too bad for me, it's one of the earlier Faria releases of wm6. anyone know what would cause it to freeze up during boot and work Sometimes? or a way to make it boot up for sure w/o doing a hard reset.

i noticed it will boot up if i press some buttons during the first/second splash screen, the HTC one and the one with the version numbers, if the keyboard lights up i know its gunna boot successfully. this is crazy. and annoying.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Hallis:
You might try flashing with Shelltool. I'e never done that but it seems to work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Have you tried to do a hard reset on it? No flash is required. Also for ActiveSync, go to Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC and uncheck (or check) the box there and see if ActiveSync starts working for you.

And you can always flash directly to the bootloader (no activesync required) if thats what you want to do. Just turn off the phone, then hold the camera button and turn the phone back on. As long as you see USB above the left softkey you are good to go for flashing a different rom onto your phone. I would strongly suggest if you do this to flash back to an official ROM first (T-Mobile 2.26 is a good one to use) and then flash a custom rom of your choice.

No idea why this would have started, but my guess is something you have recently added has a conflict on your phone. You might want to go to remove programs and remove the last couple of things. Then grab a trial copy of MemMaid and run that to clean up bad registry entries and such. See if the problem goes away.

Good luck!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sintax:
Ah.. See, I want to flash really bad and try something with the new HTC Touch on it, there are so many roms lol, i don't even know where i saved the file for the one im using now.. but the only problem is, i cannot get the damn thing to sync with activesync, i've tried reinstalling it and unchecking the other box on the phone, no go. i'm sure there is no other way to back everything up is there? :-( i'll try memmaid too just incase that can fix the registry. any specific rom you recommend with HTC Touch ? i text A LOT with my phone so i'm mainly only worried about texting and taking pictures, but i've got the UK rom to install, i heard that is better than my current one.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I don't care for the Touch stuff (I assume you are talking the Cube), so I really can't comment on that. You'll have to try that yourself.

Use PIM Backup to backup your SMS, MMS, Calendar, contacts and more to your SD card. You could install it by downloading it directly to your phone (its just a zip file with the exe that you run).

As I said, you can upgrade without activesync. Just go to the bootloader as I described.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerkus:
Hello,

I bought a second hand SM-T805 tab, mainly as a multimedia reader. The device itself is great, but the software turns out to be a real downer. So much uneeded stuff just sucking up battery time. Thus, I'm wondering what can be done to alleviate that. I'm fairly experienced with linux, recently hacked a zyxel nas to boot a custom debian, but a complete android noob. I mean come on: where is my console ?

So good advices are very welcome :)

For an instance, would it be possible to run a clean and fast kernel on that device, offering all drivers (cam, sound, touchscreen and so on), with a speedy interface, console command and nfs/samba support ? How about a stock android only patched with samsung drivers ? What would be the drawbacks compared to stock samsung software.

Than comes the question how it's done. Are there any complete guides on this forum about flashing an sm-t805 ? Any reasons why I should think twice about doing so ? Would it be possible to return to stock samsung afterwards ?

So many questions! Thank you for your help,

Thank you for your replies. I found this page: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/index-galaxy-tab-s-t3149566 It seems to sum up the possibilites offered on xda-devs for the sm-t805. Yet still miss documentation: why would I do what, how does the samsung stock software work and so on. For an instance, I got a cheap sd card - can't I boot to it and install a custom OS there, why leaving the stock rom untouched ? Flashing is always a tricky operation, which I would not recommend unless really necessary, especially when other storage medium is present.

Many apologies if a solution to this has already been posted - if it has could someone lead me in the right direction?

My problem is with transfering large files to the Ameo's Microdrive. Activesync is too slow and wont transfer large files. I have tried two different versions of wm5torage, each time installing correctly and soft resetting. I am able to connect to my computer as a mass storage device without a hitch, and all files etc show up. The problem is that when i try to move, say a DivX onto the Microdrive after about 30 seconds I receive the message: "canot copy .....: cannot find the specified file. make sure you specify the correct path and file name"

Please can someone help me with this as it's ever-so-slightly doing my head in.

Many thanks

p.s. if it's any use i've tried this with both wm5 AND 6 with the same disappointing result

Try these...

Hi Leon.

What version are you running? Try this one if you're not already running it.

If all else fails...and this is cumbersome, but works everytime.;)...use SafeMode Advanced and use it at boot time...no other drivers will be loaded and no conflicts.. It will def work then.:) After transferring your files, soft-reset to go back into standard WM5/6.

Let us know how you got on.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] yaughan:
When I try with version 1.75 it is unreliable and often produces the error message you see. It may be luck but I've not had problems with 1.73. I disconnect the USB cable first before running, activate the software, then reconnect the cable.

When it does go wrong my Microdrive file table corrupts, also the Ameo hangs on the rainbow-wheel. I soft reset. Once I get it working I get errors if I need to copy the same file again. To fix this, I open WM5torage and run Check Disk on the Microdrive from my PC.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Olipro:
what you need to do is go to settings and the connections tab and turn off the advanced network functionality in "USB to PC". then use WM5torage.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
I've tried unchecking "advanced network functionality" but to no avail. I've tried uninstalling activsync, and I've even tried it on a pc which has NEVER had Activsync on it - all with the same disappointing result.

Invariably WM5torage crashes and is 'unkillable' (if that's a word!) via Running Programs. Whatever I do it just crashes when I try to deactivate it.

I tried a hard reset of the device AND microdrive prior to installing Wm6 and THIS didn't work either. I've also tried the WM5torage cab posted in this thread by mackaby007. No luck.

I've tried Softkey Card Export ii as well and that just keeps reconnecting to activesync before windows even gets chance to recognise it as a mass storage device.:confused:

Could your problem be caused by installed software? Will have a look at Card Export 3 (never heard of it, or their notice must have gone to spam folder)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
I've always been able to use version 1.73 smoothly in the past. Then, later I tried out version 1.75 thinking that it might work better. I could connect and activate. I had no problem transferring small files. However, it always stopped recognising the device as a valid USB mass storage a few minutes into the transfer operation. The de-activation would hang the device. I then went back to the older version that I still kept in my PC, (Modaco only has the faulty new version), and everything works again. I transferred a 3.7 gb file without problem.

So, make sure you do not use version 1.75 from the Modaco site.

[XDA Assist] AbeFM:
I've spent a couple days trying to figure out why my install is giving me so much trouble. With less than 10 posts I can't post in the active thread, and the Q&A thread gets no attention. I'm running a stock, previously unmodded (though used) Galaxy S5 G900T T-Mobile version, checking both the internally reported model number as well as the sticker in the battery compartment. It has been functional for over a year but getting slow due to too many apps.

I've reflashed, redownloaded, tried different SD cards, cables, computers, etc. I'm at least on my 20th flash. I've read some people having similar problems, but in the Q&A thread it's just people with no clue talking to each other.

I've even downloaded the same file (pointlessly, with the same hash and all) from multiple mirrors.

The phone hangs on the "starting apps" screen, IF I wipe dalvik and pull battery. Anything else hangs on the "samsung fireworks" boot animation.

CM12 went on just fine, as best I can tell I'm rooted. The other questions in the Q&A thread are, at best, incomprehensible and not providing ANY technical information or even a real question, I can see why they don't get a careful response - but I'm trying to approach this logically and carefully and just plain don't know where to turn. If there were some way I could record some data of use for someone more knowledgeable to look at, I'd be all too happy to do it.

I did just PM Edgar directly, so this may help - but I've got some 16 hours of seat time watching this phone not quite boot up (except on cm12) and I'd really like to flash something beyond the stock ROM. (as a total aside, does anyone know if the latest nightly CM12 build needs the boot animation patch applied or has it been incorporated?)

Thanks!

There is no way that is a real working card. Clearly fake. Man why are we even talking about this. Xda users shouldn't be so gullible. As quickly as you can, fill it up with anything. Unmount the card, and remount it. Go and check your files. The folders will all be there, but the beginning files you put on the card wiki be gone.

It will take some time to fill up, depending on how new your computer is. Maybe it will hold 16 gb, than after that all the folders above say 16 gb will still be there, but go into the folders that copied the first 16 gb , and the data won't be there. Don't be surprised if it only holds 8 gb though.
