Issue with replacement S2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I had to have my S2 replaced under warranty this week because of failure of the USB port. The replacement came with ICS 4.0.3 already installed. After a day of getting all my stuff moved over, rooting the phone, and re-installing all my apps today I went out and paired the phone with my 2012 Ram. My previous S2 has worked flawlessly with this vehicle since day one. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get my Outlook contacts to sync to the phone via Hotmail Connector, only the Google ones. This had been working for me prior on rooted stock GB. The truck had no problem pairing, but doesn't want to dowload the phonebook for some reason so I can't use voice dial and incoming calls are not recognized. Is there enough difference between GB and ICS to have caused this? I don't want to go back to GB, but this is a deal breaker. I don't really see all that much improvement with ICS anyway. I need my phone to work as it was.:crying:

Test gb and see
Bleh

Instead of starting a whole new pointless thread, why not just downgrade and find out your self??

Dude you should have waited to get the replacement. The USB part for my phone just came in today and I just finished installing it. I'm charging up my phone now and will report back in your original thread on whether or not the charging indicator stays there after I unplug it. Replacing the chip was super easy, btw.
Edit: it wasn't your thread, but you posted in it. It's in the Q&A section.

Pointless thread? I don't want to downgrade, I wanted to find out if anyone else had seen an issue like this or had something better to reply with other than, "Flash back and see." Sorry if I took up space better used by another clueless newb asking how to revert to stock or how to flash his Skyrocket.
FYI, I finally got the Outlook/Hotmail sync working (I would tell you how, but since no one cares...). Now to see if I can get my phonebook to download to the truck. As for Lekerstein, I really didn't want to be messing with the USB connector when the phone is still in warranty. By getting a replacement I also now got another month added to my warranty and an updated phone, so I'm good. Hope yours works out for you.

Well seeing as the problem started on non GB then it would seem that ICS is the culprit

Yes and no. It appears that the original method that worked on GB for setting up MS Exchange sync of the phone with Outlook via Hotmail no longer works on ICS. I simply tried a different method and that was the charm that worked. The functionality is still there, it just takes a different setup method to get it to work.:good:

Getting really sick of my atrix switching back to my N1 until something better comes.

ok i dont even know where to start... I dont usuallypost that many threads *****ing and complaining about my phone.. but enough is enough...
I haven't rooted...(well I did a while ago BUT)... I took part in that beta testing update crap so it unrooted me.. but these problems I have been having are since the LAST "update" which was well over two months ago now (I THINK)...
1st problem I am having is randomly I cannot input text into ANY thing on the phone... I am using smart keyboard pro.. but even when i change input methods it still does not register anything i am typing... in fact when i switch the phone to landscape mode the text box goes dark grey...
2nd also when this happens... nothing will happen when i attempt to make a phone call... i click the name .. nothing happens.. i go into dialer... i cant input the number i try other methods of dialing out nothing happens....
those are the two biggest problems I have as I need to communicate with my clients all day long i cannot have this type of inconsistency.
ohh and also the finger print scanner just plain doesn't work when i go through the process of setting it up.. it wont even register the "test" swipes... its like its broken all together.... any one else having ANY of these problems?? please help me
I've never had any of those problems ever and I've had my atrix since launch date. Maybe you have a deffective device call and see if your provider will do anything about.

Problem is I bought the phone back in march from at&t unlocked it using it on Rogers the phone hasn't always done this only with In the last month and a half or do but it has gotten progressively worse to the point where it is so unreliable Ive had to switch back to my n1 which even though is only first Gen snapdragon technology running cm7... is making my this dual core look pretty ****ty right now...

to be honest... and i know it sounds pretty stupid.. but... i really dont know how to flash the sbf... i know what it is followed the thread on it when it first came out... but never put the effort into figuring out how to actually do it... and right now i just don't have the time to sit down and do that.... (lazy.. it is what it is) but that could very well fix my problem i guess right... ugghh
ok
good luck sell me ur atrix I need a second one for testing purposes
If you feel adventurous enough, try disassembling the device and reseating the LCD/digitizer cable.
I had an issue with a Samsung galaxy s vibrant about a month ago that would register touch inputs when it was just sitting on the table. I did what I suggested above and the problem was solved.

So you cant input any text and you cant make any phone calls. You know what sbf is youve seen the thread and realize that it could fix the problem but your admitedly too lazy to do it. Okay, thanks for sharing!

LOL! I mean, why don't u just go back to it and making useless comparisons?
If you took some time to read, your problem would already be solved.
1. Your digitalizer may not be working well. Guarantee will cover this.
2. SBF from scratch to discard a software issue.
None of the issues you are experiencing is related to the phone being a dual-core mobile or not.
I've been able to solve some problems by reading and taking the advice from the forums.
If your Atrix looks ****ty, it's not on it. Mine shines!
Waste of forum space!
Warranty!
Bye!
Don't let the door hit you....
Err... you have a broken phone, bro. There are lots of bugs with the Atrix but yours is simply a broken phone.
Hell if you want to complain about a phone, give me it. Ill put the work into fixing it and love it. >.< this phone sucks.

C'mon man, flashing an SBF is simple! The instructions on XDA are very detailed. I am a lifelong Mac user, and even I figured out how to flash an SBF via Windows. It would not take more than a couple hours to download all the stuff you need, and re-flash an SBF. What's your build number now?

I've come across the keyboard input bug with alternate keyboards before.
SBF your phone, there's plenty of guides available how to do this, or you can download the moto update tool from their website.
Well as they say on WOW and other MMORPG...
Can I have your stuff??

Is this fixable? Broken atrix :(

Hard to explain in text, here is a video:

Please advise?
it should be fixable, depending on if the screen setup is one assembly, then its going to cost you, im pretty sure its the digitizer that you cracked or damaged, i will look and see what i can find for you
Are you running any ROMS? If so, try flashing a new one. If you are just at stock phone, try flashing the stock firmware over from the Motorola website. All directions are there and firmwares.
Also are you rooted or/and have an unlocked bootloader.
I am hoping it's a software glitch but it's probably a hardware issue.

I don't see any cracks, could be sub surface maybe? I think digitizers are like 50 bucks.
One guy told me digitizers either work or they don't, there is no half working. Is that not true?

can you repair it yourself is the wuestion.
Damn thats crucial. I know this is prob not the most helpful idea but I guess worth a try.. Have you downloaded the Touchscreen Booster app to see if it makes a difference? You can have it pushed to your phone via the Android Market on a computer, just select the Atrix and your phone should download it automatically. The dropdown box you need to change is right about where your top row of keys is so maybe just maybe.. Try the "super optimized" setting. Sorry I cant be more help, hope you get it resolved.
you are wrong, digitizers can do what yours is doing, ive had it happen a few times to my past iphones, i posted a link for you that should fix it

That's what I figured. The guy sounds old (no offense to you older guys) but sometimes older guys like to rip stuff apart without taking the time to really watch what you're doing.
I assume superglue will work fine to put the pieces back together?

that would work, but i wouldnt recoment it. if you read the comments they will give you good tips too im only 19 and ive torn apart blackberys and every version of the iphone(ive owned 8 total) i dont have issues with electornics or little parts, but you are right for (no offece) older people, or elders, they tend to lets say... slip or something and screw it up, you could even record yourself and watch it after.

for the glue, use a blow drier, ir buy some adhesive superglue i think is a no no because it fuses the 2 things together, that could screw stuff up. just my 2 cents
---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------
also keep me posted on your operation
Welp, it's fixed, aside from a few qualms. One, the prox sensor doesn't work. Two, I didn't clean off the old adhesive stuff well enough and the screen is slightly bulged out. Not a big deal but it is what it is.
Overall, I kind of wish I would have just spent the 20 bucks extra and claimed insurance on it. Oh well. I'll probably do it sometime after tax season next year when I have some money to waste on it. For now, it'll do.

I was wondering if anyone has actually ever use this features with other devices like linking it up with GS3 or with other devices that have NFC and Android Beam capabilities???... and does it have to be the same device in order for it to work properly???

My wife has the SGS2 but she won't let me do anything to it. So it's stuck on GB and it won't let me beam to or from her phone.
that sucks lol.. GB is a thing of the past and maybe perhaps her device needs to be updated to ICS in order for it to work properly.... but if your device is rooted, i heard that it may not work.

I shared a contact with my wife's (also an Amaze) phone via NFC the other day. I had tried several other times with no success. This time I heard a notification sound signalling success.

I've used it quite a few times. Shared my contact info with a young lady I met at a bar, plus a couple of YouTube vids. But we have 3 S3s in the house also, plus a Samsung tv, so if I want to try different stuff to beam or try I always have another phone around.

Yes it says i9100 but it works for the i777. I just bought from that link and replaced it my I777 with basically the same problem you have. Problem was solved (see "usb won't connect" thread in Q&A).
There's a YouTube video showing how to replace it on the i9100, which I followed and is extremely similar to the i777.

I must add, that you should really evaluate yourself, and decide if you have the skills to do it. It can damage your phone permanently if you don't do it the right way.

Does this require soldering to install? Are there any instructions available? Thank you.
Edit: I found a video here which I think should help.
Won't charge?
Like rushaan stated that you should think before you go any further, if your battery will not charge it could be more of an issue than a charger. For the last week I have been trying to boot mine and only get one of 2 messages, The Samsung boot image, and I have done all most everything I have read in our forums. The last run, I had been re-installing some apps, after a ROM change,all was going great ,then a message came up Stating that "due to the battery heating up,it was shutting down the charger" so, of course battery was drained and con not get the freakin' phone to do anything but show the "SAMSUNG" boot animation.. NOW, since then I can not get it to boot, esp. into CWM recovery. I am still reading to see what file/image that I maybe able to use while utilizing ODIN. So,with that being said look a bit more in-depth before you think you have the correct solution.

I have tried 4-5 diferent roms and in all roms i am getting my music apps(audio+video stock and third party apps, call ringtones) are getting strugle in running with both speaker and headphone mod. Not getting fc anytime. Sometime all related apps runs smoothly and sometime all face struggle zigzag type video/audio. Any help Please.
Is flashing stock firmware help? OR it is purly a hardware related issue.
Will flashing Stock firmware via odin unroot my phone?
Dont have a clue about that, did you try another music player like google mudic?

Actually extra volume boost link given by you is for sony or aosp roms and for increse in volume. I have different issue. My audio/video are not running smoothly even ringtone when anyone calls me. So i would not like to try that. I have tried Google play music app. and actually right now all related apps are working fine so that also works fine. I will reply about Google music app when I get the issue again.
Okay. You said something about a sound mod so I looked for it.

yes. and same issue comes in all roms so i think it may be some hardware related issue Or some error which is not getting solved after rom changing also. As you suggested to someone in other thread "strong bootloop" to use script "to remove parts of the phone that may be can make some isues with the ROM that you are flashing" , Can i use that type of thing. If so please provide a link for i9100g.
Actually problem starts as:
I was with teamxd rom(samsung based). My memory get filled and i could not delete any file by file manager(ES). I made a factory reset and device got bootloop. Then I install the same Rom again with full wipe. After that i am with this problem in all roms.

I actually dont know what is wrong maybe is what you say error or a bug. And the i9100g I think that it uses almost exact hardware thing that i9100 has the only difference is the nfc.

You might need to change the USB flex board then. Cheap & easy. Click the link in my signature, from there you can access a guide by @keithross39, where it's explained how to DIY if you choose. Pay careful attention though, there's 4 different versions (revisions) of the board itself, you need the correct one or you'll get issues. Else, just take it to a service centre/local shop to get it replaced.

I would ordinarily say it isn't either. I don't know if it's not that. Regardless, it sounds like you need a new one anyway. Let us know how you go with the repair shop.
As far as I know, the i9100g one will not be compatible with the i9100, as the hardware is different. I don't know how to buy one for an i9100g, I would have said ebay but other than that, I'm not too sure. Sorry to not be of much help.
