I did everything u said. I checked the SD card & the slot and they seem ok.

This might sound dumb, but what do you mean by 'shaking'? Which part are you suppose to shake?? Sorry, im still new to androids :)

BTW, i went to the LG customer care. The technician checked it and said that they are going to replace the SD card slot. She said that sparepart (the SD card slot) is going to arrive sometime in mid-January due to the holidays.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
By the shake I mean grab phone and do quick movements with phone from left to right and back. :)

But it seems, that you have some trouble with hardware part(s) of phone.

So I've been obsessing about trying to get some form of emoji to work and was wondering if this would be possible...couldn't I just find where the current android smileys are in the framework then add all emoji I want as long as they are the correct size and format? Then I just do the same to all my friends evos...is this just wishful thinking? Let me know what you think!

There were many steps and columns. It was most tranquil.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwnstyle21:
Not sure if this helps but if you use WhatsApp they've enabled all emojis for their messenger. You can use it cross platform via the app but I'd like the ability to use it in the standard texting/email like iPhones are able to do.

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Hold the power down for at least 5 seconds. You should see the screen go completely dark (better in a semi-dark room, as it's easier to see).

still stuck

tried your solution, nothing.

let it charge overnight to make sure I wasnt being a total scrub and the battery was dead....nothing

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[G Tablet General] nickmaccombs:
skip this, finally woke it up...on to next problem :) thanks all
[G Tablet General] butchconner:
When I first tried to flash to 1.1a, something like this happened. I don't think it was the ROM -- I think something malfunctioned inside the file system.

It was in the continuous Off/VS Birds/G-TabletLogo loop and even the power switch would not turn it off!

I wound up flashing CWM, and when I got into CWM I re-partitioned and re-formatted everything and then was able to successfully re-flash to TnT 2.2.0. (With the file system fixed, I am guessing I probably could have gone back to 1.01a if I have wanted to.)

Glad you are back working.

ARGHH!!

So has anyone found a definitive way to get these devices out of APX mode? I did a full restore on new device to clean up all the partitions and such, now nothing seems to get this thing to come out of APX. I suppose I could power it up with nvflash and leave it on the nvflashing screen until the battery dies, but there had to be a better way than burning the battery down overnight...

I have tried all sorts of combinations of powering on and off, is there a magic sequence lol...

[G Tablet General] helfrez:
Please don't hijack threads. There are LOTS of threads about boot loops. Check out some of the boot loop threads.
[G Tablet General] helfrez:
I was able to finally get the device unlocked and running much better. I used the nvflash recovery to get back to stock, then used Z4Root to get the device rooted stock. The rooting seems to have un-apx'd the device, and it works fine from there. So I would recommend keeping z4root on your drive so you can install it and root the device if it gets stuck in apx mode lol. It's a dirty hack but it worked for me when nothing else did.
[G Tablet General] butchconner:
Both of you,

I don't see that the thread was hijacked -- both of you are/were stuck in loops. Or at least something I think have a common cause.

What I was saying in my earlier post is that I am seriously wondering if the boot loops are caused by problems with the file system. Say, the system malfunctions or a flash makes something so it can't find the files it need to start.......

From my reading, it seems like most of the loops wind with the file system having to be fixed, or a new mod flashed over it, etc.

If we could determine that, perhaps we could know if loading CWM and fixing, or some such -- might save a tablet w/o having to re-flash.

Ideas or opinions?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ram100987:
I recently soft bricked my vibrant. I was attempting to flash a cooked rom and I must have did something wrong when making it because it didn't flash right. now I cannot get into CWM and when I get into the Recovery it says

E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid Argument)
# MANUAL MODE #

-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Installing Multi-CSC
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid argument)

choosing reinstall packages simply brings me back to recovery with the same message. I'm on linux so I installed hiemdall to "odin" back to stock. The GUI version won't seem to give the a lit up "start" button no matter what I do but I've been using the command line version.

I get into download mode with the digger android by pulling the battery, putting it back in and holding vol up + down and then plug in the usb. I have tried every odin rom I can find but I keep running into the same issues. Whenever I try to flash:

heimdall flash --pit ~/Documents/Android/s1_odin_20100513.pit

and I've used both the 513 and 512 pit files and have downloaded them from several different sources to rule out a bad file. but everytime it tell me:

Claiming interface... Failed. Attempting to detach driver...
Claiming interface again... Success
Setting up interface... Success
Beginning session...
Handshaking with Loke... Success

Downloading device's PIT file...
PIT file download sucessful

Optional PIT check failed! To disable this check don't use the --pit parameter.Ending session...
Rebooting device...
Re-attaching kernel driver...

and the phone will reboot and stick at the vibrant screen. If i do what it recommended and don't use the pit command and try the command:

heimdall flash --factoryfs ~/Documents/Android/All_In_One/Original.tar

it will then give out:

Claiming interface... Failed. Attempting to detach driver...
Claiming interface again... Success
Setting up interface... Success
Beginning session...
Handshaking with Loke... Success

Uploading factory filesytem
100%
Factory filesytem upload successful
Ending session...
Rebooting device...
Re-attaching kernel driver...

so it seems to flash the tar file fine but it still get stuck at the vibrant screen and it still gives that same message in recovery. I've tried several tar files in this fashion that are from every different version I could find from stock 2.1 to different 2.2 builds... I've also tried using the pit and factoryfs commands at once but it gets stuck on the pit issue and never attempts to flash to tar file...

I'm running out of ideas and would really like some help on this issue!

UPDATE

I think i've fixed my problem finally !!

I know i've heard a trillion time's that when you think you've brick it just odin froyo that does not brick... well it's no longer on XDA and did not seem to be on eugenes website either unless he simply renamed it, so I had not tried it. I finally decide to google it to see if the rom was still on any other websites. Luckily i found it, i forgot where, and downloaded it. Well I kept having the same problems i've been having all along with the pit file not working properly and flashing the tar file doesn't do much just like all the others.... well for the hell of it I extracted the tar file and flashed all the files with separate options like this:

heimdall flash --pit s1_odin_20100512.pit --factoryfs factoryfs.rfs --cache cache.rfs --dbdata dbdata.rfs --param param.lfs --kernel zImage

and as i expected, it didn't get past the pit file. I then tried the same command minus the pit parameter and holy crap!! I noticed when my phone rebooted that it said vibrant for a second and then said galaxy s i900 or something of that sort and went into recovery and showed an error. it was an error, but HURRAY it finally did something and I remember from the froyo that does not brick tutorial that an error was normal and to reboot with adb. So I did this, and I could hardly believe it actually booted up completely!! I was getting soooo frustrated, I was at it for about 6 hours straight with little to no luck and now as long as nothing goes wrong when I attempt to flash the rom I want (sXe, no mods to it this time) I'll be all set finally!
[Epic 4G General] Gersonian:
Just taking an assessment here of the number of people going back to 2.1 and waiting out the OTA from Sprint.

I am not... I Repeat NOT looking to start a thread over whether or not it's worth it or a good idea. I am not looking to know what problems you are having or solutions you have found. There are a million threads to go over these issues.

Just taking a count here. Perhaps to help me in deciding whether or not its worth it to go through reinstalling all those apps and whatnot based on what the masses seem to be thinking.

OK if you guys want to use this as yet another repository for conversations on the pros and cons and problems you are having when you switch back please feel free...
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I already have. For me, di18 runs circles around froyo. I don't think this is the final froyo. It's too goddamn slow and buggy. If it is, then this is the most sorry ass excuse for a final release from samsung/sprint. I'd give it the golden turd award.

P.S. I'm running stock rooted only.

No. I've been on the stock rom since I got an epic at the end of October, and this leak is by far the best rom I've used. I have absolutely no problems with this rom whatsoever. The one minor quirk is the screen lag when I open and close my keyboard, the home screen take a second to populate the icons and stuff. Other than that, I really don't have any major problems with this release at all.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
DK28 feels like somehow I flashed Windows Mobile 6.5 on my phone. Launcher Pro is buggy and crashes at least several times per day. The phone freezes all the time and i have to mash the home key a hundred times to correct it, and then its vibrating for like 20 seconds registering the previous 100 hits of the home key. The browser is checkerboarding and WTF did my bookmarks go in the browser? Seriously, when you are in the browser, how do you access your bookmarks? They are no where to be found. Random apps are having anywhere from minor to major problems, most of which I fix manually through root explorer and correcting permissions. I did flash it correctly, so its not an issue with that. That said, its a PITA to flash back to DI18 and ive been putting it off. Gonna wait until I am mid throw chucking my phone against a wall, and then I will stop myself and flash back to DI18 that evening.
[Epic 4G General] acegolfer:
I guess I'm lucky with DK28. My phone has no ill effects.
[Epic 4G General] mxcoldhit:
Same here. I'm keeping 2.2. It runs faster, smoother, and battery last longer. I have had no app conflicts. I'm came from unrooted stock epic, and just downloaded file from google the day it came out to my phone. Used my phone to change the name of the file, and used stock recovery to update. No probs what so ever.
[Epic 4G General] hamsoplo:
Anyone know if can use stock recovery to update to the final release from the leaked version? Thd update.zip method is so easy
[Epic 4G General] Kawinma:
As a former Windows Mobile 6.5 user, I would like you to know that even WM6.5 on a TP2 is much more enjoyable to use than DK28.

That having been said, I went from DK28 back to Epic Experience.
[Epic 4G General] Gersonian:
Well a couple of things...

1) I think its funny that this has been viewed (at this point) 111 times, but only 17 people were willing to click yes no or considering it. I guess I should have included an option for those people who never flashed the update to begin with.

2) I updated on the day it was released as well. I had to do the flash back to get the GPS working again, but as of now the only real issue I have appears to be the accelerometer rotation lag.

@JSarella and @muyoso: I also was Stock ROM and rooted before the update and just used the update.zip method. However, I am not sure if that makes a difference with regard to the results of flashing to DK28.

@mxcoldhit: The battery life is amazing. I don't even have to use JuiceDefender, I can keep my screen at a normal brightness, have 2 email accounts pushing all day long, listen to an hour of music, make a couple of calls, play some games/do some light browsing, and still have battery to spare... just incredible to me the difference from 2.1 where I could hardly go a few hours of the day and do anything on the phone (without using JD).

I just felt like my phone was a bit snappier on eclair, and have been considering how much that snappiness is worth to me. I have backed up with CWM, so its not such a hassle, but I do love the battery life, flash support, and general feel of Froyo and know I would miss it as I wait at least 3 weeks for a final release. Also, who knows when an RC2 will be released and how much more careful Sprint will be as they actually caught wind of this one and all the excitement around it... I partially wonder if they did it as a teaser just to get a sense of how the community is feeling or to throw us off the scent of the gingerbread rumor... WHO KNOWS!!! Anywho, thanks to everyone who has responded, and I will keep checking in from time to time to see how it looks and what people are choosing to do based on their own personal experiences with DK28.
[Epic 4G General] angelo2k8:
Already went back, didn't waste any time.
[Epic 4G General] Orbiting234:
DK28 has been a great experience for me! Faster, smoother, more responsive than DI18 (or earlier) ever was! Dunno what some of you have done to your phones but DK28 has been running circles around the previous Eclair builds for the Epic 4G. My phone has only been on stock and never rooted. Also did a factory reset prior to DK28 so maybe that's why it has been such an utter joy for me. :D

Not going back and I'd be an idiot to do so!

Only issue that i am having is that my gps is trashed and doesn't want to work. I haven't tried to fix it yet i may just wait and see if there will be another update soon. All in all i love it.

After this morning I am going to have to go with likely to go back. Over time I am finding more and more bugs with DK28. This morning I was driving to work, I keep my phone linked to my car with bluetooth for slacker radio. Twice it loses it's connection and I was like what the hell.... so I look at my phone and it says 2 missed calls which should have gone through the bluetooth but instead just killed the data connection. Then 5 minutes later my whole notification bar goes green. Not a normal green, a look like a video card crashing green /w lines through it.

I just keep seeming to find random bugs here and there and it is getting a bit annoying. I may just wait it out until Samsung figures this whole froyo thing out.
[Epic 4G General] flash_c4:
LOL! I guess I'm not the only one but I wouldn't go as far to say it is as bad as WinMo 6.5 even though certain things do remind me of my Touch Pro 2. I have realized that this isn't Froyo. It's FRUITCAKE!
[Epic 4G General] nmoreman:
I already went back - came from rooted stock, went back unrooted so OTA will work.

My battery SUCKED - I am used to getting a normal day's use with a lot left, I was having to plug in mid afternoon/dinner time. Just like before the 9/30 update and still doing all the tricks to keep battery down, ie airplane toggle, kill all Media, check Wifi status, etc. I HATE to plug in my phone for what I consider normal usage, not high tech, downloading, playing games. I almost returned it in Sept for this, will not go there again.

And GPS did NOT work, no has codes, nothing. I am going on vacation and really need GPS, so that was the final straw.

Liked - phone did seems snappier and faster. changing dock station icons

pics and some programs came up faster

Disliked - email was really slow messaging was different, screens bright was

ok but got popups (might be me and settings)

Didn't have calibration/rotation problems, didn't check camera, no dropped calls

Just lost too much and didn't gain enough to continue. I'm glad those above did well, it could depend on how you use it as well as how it was loaded, no idea, but battery for me was nightmare and unacceptable.
[Epic 4G General] viperacr99:
No, not going back unless I have to to get the next update. Battery life is significantly improved and everything is as snappy as it was before, and my gps is working even if it comes on while 4g is connected. No crashes yet and I have been running it since about 5 minutes after the link to the update.zip was posted.

And to access bookmarks in the browser you have to press the button next to the addres bar when a page is not loading. I hope they put it back into the bottom menu though.

Edit:

I haven't made up my mind yet. Many of the froyo roms seem to have minor issues here and there, but are otherwise usable.
[Epic 4G General] zen_phone:
Stock to 2.2.1 is too good to go back. Issues, media volume was too low with setting at max, couple of missing programs. Did a factory reset with cache wipe media volume fixed. Some programs not available for 2.2.1. Probably caused volume problem too. Downloaded all existing from Market. Used GPS status tools and after a couple of minutes, GPS lock was fixed. 1-3 seconds and as good as 2 meters.

Little lag for icons showing when opening keyboard. It's a phone; it's ok.

I'll rely on XDA support if there is a problem with the official OTA!
[Epic 4G General] tatical:
I'm sticking with 2.2.1 because I'm not having any issues (anymore). After I updated using the update.zip method (& clearing the cache), the 4G stopped working & the only website I could access was google.com. These problems went away after about 30 minutes, but I decided to do a full reset on the phone anyway.

I should have used the backup option in

Contacts

because my gmail account didn't have them anymore for some reason :confused:. But I was able to recover them from my TouchPro 2 backup :D (only lost one new number). The GPS is accurate to within 3 feet instead of 97 feet [using GPS Test app], but I never really had a problem with navigation anyway though.

The only thing I don't like is the text messaging bubbles, I like the old style better.
[Epic 4G General] ghlu:
I am torned. On one hand Dk28 offers many improvements. Better music player, better video player, flash support..etc. On the other hand there are some quirky bugs. For example my dial would auto rotate even though I set the phone to NOT auto rotate. My wifi sometimes would die after streaming for a long time. 4G radio sometimes would start for no reason even though wifi is on. Battery life is not as good too. Has trouble mounting sd card on my computer too. Hopefully samsung can fix those asap else I might have to switch back...
[Epic 4G General] chino0131:
I went back today. I had no real issues with Froyo, everything worked well and I didn't experience most of the issues others had. My phone was just more responsive in every way on 2.1 than with Froyo.

In a couple of threads I've seen references to changing or restoring your "device ID". Did a search and couldn't find anything. What is this and how do you do it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreancanuck:
Basically it's a problem with froyo ROMs. Our phones have unique device ID. Froyo ROMs have the same device id for each device which causes market issues (i.e. downloading apps but it not being able to install often). That's why people want to change their device ID's so that their market problems are gone.

Some of the ROMs (like Cognition, perception, etc.) have random android id generator so that market issues are fixed. Alternatively, you can flash back to stock, use "Android ID changer" from market to find your device ID, flash to one of the froyo ROMs, then use the same app to change your ID.
