Bro got drunk at some Yahoo Fantasy Football event at his University and did a backflip into the pool with the Atrix I got him on Sunday (to think he's going to be a Doctor some day). ATT sent out a new Atrix and all that jazz, so I'm setting it back up (rerooting, titanium backup, etc).
Before he went to the party I was working on his phone and backed up everything with Titanium Backup and then made a copy of that backed up TB folder and added it to the micro SD card w/ all his media. That day after I punched him out (literally) I checked to see if the SIM card & micro SD card worked although they took major water damage. It turned out the SIM card was fine (tested it on my old Moto Backflip) but the micro SD card stopped working until I added into a micro SD adapter and I found all the files that got backed up.
I dragged all the Titanium Backup files into the new Atrix, but after I hit batch and try to restore everything under the restore tab is at 0. I checked to make sure the files I dragged into the hard drive of the phone after mounting and they are all there. The only thing is I see "?" before the name of the files in the file manager.
Was wondering if someone could help me figure out what the issue with TB is since it's not recognizing those files I backed up from his old Atrix on the new Atrix.
Thanks and yeah what a ****ty week, thank god for phone insurance (although it cost 125$ to get a new one)
Also, is there a way to access the hard drive on the phone also although it won't turn on? Probably not but thought I'd ask.
Edit: Here's the image of the question mark in the Atrix.

in TB go to preferences and select back up location, then find your files and your done. run back up
i think he wants to restore, so go to 'restore folder' under settings and choose the folder u copied over
eh same thing. just gotta tell TB where your files are at in preferences /detect files....
Try putting the phone in rice If you didn't send it away that is. I had the same thing happen to my phone and since the rice fixed it, I was able to send the replacement phone back and save the $125.

Nice that worked but I guess that's an old back up I did. Other then the rice method is there a way I can access the damaged phones folders?

Rice doesn't magically soak it up either. The rice won't absorb much water unless the phone is literally dripping wet.
Use silica gel packets instead. But them in bulk at a music shop.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Yes, silica is better for this situation, but rice is handy and often in the cabinet. Silica works better if you dont take your phone apart, but rice is an excellent alternative if you at least open up your phone at the screws. It may not seem like it, but rice does absorb moisture/water better than it appears.
I voided my warranty.

Hello Everyone,
Today, I was trying to clean my Galaxy S2 and so I attempted to remove the Micro SD card (probably for the second time ever since I bought the phone). Anyways, quite gently I removed the card but after cleaning and putting everything back together, I tried to insert the card back but it wouldn't lock with the card slot and as a result, the micro SD card would not get mounted and I wouldn't be even able to put the battery back on since the card does stick out a bit. Anyways, being a fool I tried to jam it in and yes the battery went in and the phone started but I reckon I damaged the card slot even more than it was previously damaged.

I have tried everything. I disassembled the phone's rear end and tried to see if I could tinker with the lock in the card slot but to no avail. I believe the slot is directly attached to the mainboard and as a result, I haven't been able to do anything else about it. I believe the lock in the slot has been damaged and so, it won't take in the card completely. So just to be clear, this is all physically gone wrong. The card slot has a lock that clicks everytime you insert the card successfully, unfortunately it has stopped clicking on my phone and I am now missing out on 16/32gb worth of files etc.
I am not sure what to do so any advice from y'all would be greatly appreciated. I will try to take it to the Pacific Mall in Toronto tomorrow. I reckon only they can fix it and since my phone voids the Sammy Warranty, I'd have little or no chance of getting Samsung to fix it for me without costing me handful. If anyone of you has been on the same situation before, please feel free to share any tips or advice. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions.
All you can do is take it to repair...

Try removing the card and getting a very small brush and see if you can clean the port at all. It seems too strange that when you removed it you can't replace it in the port again. Sounds like debris but it doesn't seem right. If you clean the port and no luck, return your phone to stock and send it off for repair, and play dumb, nearly always works.

Haha thanks for the awesome suggestion. I had been at Pacific Mall, store name is Cell 123, none of the other stores were willing to take the risk to fix the sd card slot. Basically its not dirt, its the connectors within the slot that seem a bit out of place. Can happen easily with wear and tear and if you like me pull and push the sd cards a lot. Well then it can definitely happen. Just one of those things I hate about Samsung. The quality of some of its hardware is not top notch.
So after 2 hours of playing with the slot, the store owner nailed it. It's not completely fixed though. Most of the time, the phone reads the sd card without any issue but 2 times already, it has failed to recognize it. I believe the lock is loose and as a result, the micro sd moves around and cant stay in its fixed position, so the phone fails to read it at times.
I have my Streak for almost two years and yesterday I experienced a problem - screen is all messed up. On the left screen side, I just got some fuzzy colors and over whole screen horizontal bars.

I guess there is not much chance of it getting better, huh?
So, before I send it to the shop, can I do a complete backup and wipe all data on the device, so that I can later restore it 1:1?
Thanks for any help

just do full nandroid backup... though you need streakmod recovery to do it...
and the screen happens like that is usually because the cable connectors or the ribbon is pretty much spoiled...
Do I need to have rooted device for that? I have the stock 2.2.

actually the repair is the same as replacing the lcd to a new one... and streak has a history of expensive screen change...
Another question on the matter - the horizontal lines constantly change (now there are many more than on the photo above). Is it a failure in the screen itself or somewhere else? Or in some connection? I've tried disassembling my Streak and replugging the cables in hope I could at least get rid of those stripes.

usually that happen when the cable stripes that attached to the screen is getting loose... such as the glue used is no longer has its ability to retain the glue function....
in this case... well... best replace the lcd... just brace the price of replacing it...
I have other troubles with the Streak (resetting while in pocket etc) so I don't really want to invest much more in it. Also I'm worried whether the lines would actually be gone if I replaced the screen.
But if I could at least get rid of these stripes, streak could still have it's use even with malfunctioning left side of the screen (alarm clock, radio or similar - especially with the not-so-cheap craddle I have).
Can you sell me your Dell? I live in Vienna
I took the risk of buying your streak if you still have no other solution. I live to come. pleased to confirm my information. thank you.
I still use it, even with the broken screen. Sorry
Every single rezound user should know this trick. I didn't invent the trick, I wish I could give credit to whoever did.
This process is for those times when you have a bad flash, or maybe you already wiped your phone, then accidentally rebooted with no rom, and there's an old PH98IMG.zip on your sdcard. Obviously, a micro sd card USB adapter or reader would be ideal. This is just a trick for when you're out shopping with the wife and bored out of your mind, and you make a boo boo. Or maybe you're driving and don't have time to drive home and either use a card reader or adb/fastboot.
Why It Works: HBoot checks for a PH98IMG.zip file when it boots. Once it's booted to hboot it's not checking anymore. So if you can boot to hboot and then attach the storage with the PH98IMG.zip, it will never know its there.
Keep in mind, different people have different questions so I was very detailed. The process only takes 30 seconds or so.
Step 1 - Remove battery cover. Place the phone on a soft clean surface face down and slide the micro sd card out. Slide it slowly and you'll feel different "steps" of tension. Now slide the card into the slot in the casing, just far enough to be in place like in the photo, but not plugged in with contacts touching.

}
Step 2 - Notice in the Photo for step 2 the four gold spring point contacts. You will see a matching set of female contacts on the battery. This is the reason that we can successfully pull this off along with the phones layout. Thos gold pins are important because you want to set the bottom of the battery in place so the contacts are connected but you're holding the battery up at an angle to have access to the sd card.
At this time place the phone upside down in your left hand, the power button facing towards you.
Step 3 - Set the battery contacts in place against those 4 gold spring contacts on the phone, use your thumb to hold the battery up above the sdcard leaving clearance for your finger
Step 4 - Now that you've got the phone and battery in place, adjust the phone so that you're comfortable and applying even pressure and can access the power vol down buttons at the same time
Step 5 - While holding the volume down button (I use my left pinky because its convenient with my grip and layout) press the power button and release it.
Step 6 - The phone should boot to hboot, you'll probably feel a vibration and you will see the white screen, in a dark room I simply watch for my palm to light up
Step 7 - Now HBoot is booted, use a finger to press the sdcard into place, and set the battery down into the tray while keeping even pressure so all four contacts remain touching.
You can now turn your phone over and you will see the recovery option, with amon ra recovery go to Developer Menu/ Hboot Kernel Zip Menu and select "Delete Hboot PXXXIMG.zip from sdcard" and press power to confirm.

With the disclaimer that this should only be done when at a complete stop in a parking lot not a public roadway so as not to put anyone in danger, this little trick is a life saver when you're driving and flashing.

I've had to do this a few times. It's a PITA but it works great.
This does in fact work and comes in quite handy, but can take some practice and precision to get it down. :good:
Here's a trick I also found.
Remove the SD card.
Insert the battery like normal.
Plug the phone into a charging source.
Boot to hboot.
Remove the battery. Only in hboot will the phone stay on without the battery if it is plugged into a charger.
Insert the SD card.
Insert the battery.
Done.

I'm trying to figure out if i need to return a new note I bought 2 two nights ago from Verizon brick and mortar. It is periodically rebooting. The screen was also glitchy towards the end of the first 24 hours (height of reboots) but has been fine since I did a factory reset.
But it STILL reboots itself occasionally. All I have installed since wipe is xda, tune in radio, Google voice.
I have had power saving turned on the whole time with screen brightness at or near minimum.
Is the some log I can check to see what is causing the reboots?
Is there some way to return this device without winding up with a refurbished replacement?
Glad I haven't rooted yet as then I'd be sure it was something I caused.

Just got mine this week as well and experienced the random reboots. Mine was more due to large amount of processes running at once. It did it around 5 times but only when it was fetching multiple downloads from Play store. Yours is doing it for no reason while it is just sitting there?
I had 2 random reboots day 1 of my phone and nothing since. I just chalked it up to gremlins.
Has happened listening to streaming audio but today rebooted once and froze once requiring a battery pull while just on Web (stock browser) or xda. The screen issues which seem to have gone away after factory reset were blinking/sparkling lines as screen refreshed and also earlier in the day an insensitive capacitive screen (the stylus worked fine). The sensitivity problem was first symptom but has not reappeared after wipe. A lot of the day I have the phone in my pocket with headphones plugged in but not necessarily in my ears so could have missed loss of reboots.

I don't see how either but searching other forums there was some indication that a bad card could cause otherwise unexplained problems so I thought I'd mention it. I swapped it for my wife's card anyway.
I just don't like the idea of swapping a new phone for a refurbished one which is presumably what they will try.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
If you just bought it and return it to the store you got it from, I would think that they will give you a new replacement (assuming that they have inventory on hand). I can't imagine that there would be many refurbs in the channel yet anyway since the phone has only been available for 2 weeks.
No issue here with stock non-rooted. You can also try ODIN'ing the stock image before you resort to returning it.
No reboots for me. Does not matter if stock, rooted,bootloader unlocked with beans version 2 ROM and even overclocked to 1.8ghz using different kernal.
A good test is to factory reset and don't sign into Google upon reboot. Just play around with the apps that came on the phone. Maybe download a stress test App from the play store and let that sucker run for a few hours.
Edit:
I'm using a 64gig card and formatted it to Fat 32 to make it compatible with twrp recovery. Maybe just leave out your SD card to make sure.
It started behaving badly while running the steers test and also streaming audio, browsing Web, etc.
Attached is the battery usage plot and you can see it seems to have went from 30% battery to 15% then after putting it in the charger it started to charge normally then jumped back up to the level it should have been at. There is also an earlier smaller blip like this.
Maybe a problem with a power regulator? Think it's going back tomorrow.

This is right.. If you have any chance of saving the phone, never power it on for a day or so. I don't think rice works that well, i've dropped many phones in water and the best way I have found to actually save the phone is to put the oven on a very low heat, put it in the oven w / the door open, and then let it sit for a day or two.
YMMV, but if you turn it on and it starts acting funky it is almost always 100% dead.

agreed, my oven has a warm setting that's about 160-200 degrees. Works well to dry out electronics.
take the phone apart
remove motherboard
clean all contacts with at least %90 alcohol.
