well to start with, i bought this samsung galaxy s2 mobile, it has been working absolutely fine until 3 days ago. My battery was low and it went into flight mode, i connected my mobile to the wall charger and it started charging up but since then, my mobile is in flight mode, i keep turning it off and it internally goes into flight mode, in settings it shows its off but on top bar of my screen, there is the flight icon, i cant make or receive any calls/texts since this started happening, I tried soft reset (removing the battery for few mins), didnt work. I tried to factory reset my mobile but its asking for some password, i tried my google password from which i configured the device at the time of purchase, but it says the password is incorrect. Pls help
Thanks

Make sure that when you enter your password you are connected to your/a wifi network because I assume you don't have mobile internet on flight mode.
Also, this may sound stupid but make sure you don't have any app or WIDGET that enables/disables fly mode, also long press your power button until the popup and see if flightmode is disable there too.
Last, go into your Phone Information and make sure you have a baseband and an Imei
*#06# on your dialer.
security password to protect your data,assuming you tried to master reset in android,if you didnt make one and have warranty,take it back, because the other process will void your warranty

I'm having the same problem, but i assume that i got it when the phone was updated OTA to 4.0.3 (LPG). I certainly did'nt have the problem beforehand.
It's absolutely useless to try to disable flightmode, both with powerbutton and manually inside settings - the phone never goes out of flightmode, even that it says that flightmode is disabled in settings, and when pressing powerbutton.
My solution though, is to disable flightmode and rebooting the phone. That works, but i don't know if that solves your specific problem. Irritating problem though - it somehow destroys the feeling of a good phone...

All right, I have a lil problem that goes a little some like this...
1) Everytime a try to shut down the phone it reboots automatically!
I've also been having other problems with the phone too! and they are
2) I charge my mobile at night go to work and only, only just last when i get home after 8 - 10 hours, in that time i dont even use it! but when i disconnect it from charging fully, it takes a while to recognise that it has disconnected, displays battery still charging etc, and it makes noises that its connected and disconnected???
3) They unlock screen plays up, you'll try and drag your finger across the screen to make a pattern to unlock and it does complete the pattern or recognise where your finger is, if you wait for a little bit or lock then try again it works??? (GO LOCK installed, along with GO PRO theme!)
4) GO weather doesn't recognise your GPS positioning but the Navigation program does. (this maybe the program i dont know, its just all happening at once that all)
5)Try to connect to Samsung Kies Pc studio to update the firmware and mobile, and i keep getting a message saying 'Reconnect the device in Samsung Kies (PC Studio) mode. Current connection mode not supported be Kies. (and this is with the updated Kies program)
6) Now when i turn it off and restarts it's self, it hangs on at shut down flashing between two picture, the battery status picture and saying its overheated, when now it doesn't overheat like it was doing earlier or even get hot at all??? And to get it outta this mode i have to put a charger in it and turn it back on and take it out
What i have done so far:
a) I've uninstalled all the 'GO' apps
b) followed the Samsung Kies instructions and still same problem
c) tried going throught the mobile's options to turn on or off anything to do with USB sharing and bebugging, and keeps telling me that the usb cable is to be disconnected when it is not???
All i can relate this to is when, one time while i was working i put my mobile away in the glove box of the work vehicle, i returned to it at the end of the day and remember my mobile would be flat at this stage, so i was gonna check the time, and i sore the mobile had SOME how went into 'ODIN' mode, NO one ever touched it, nor did i do anything to it to do this, and sore it was trying to download something? I panicked, try to turn it off, and wouldn't turn back on till i got a charger into it.
So now i am thinking this maybe to problem 'ODIN' mode when i forced it to shut down!, but from here this is where i need help? What is first

Ok, wired thing just happened, i was stuffing around, my mobile was connected by usb to the computer charging, and it reached 100% so i disconnected it and was playing through the menus again, trying to disable debugging mode and... it finally disconnected!
So i was able to connected to Kies, checking everything and it was saying that i had the latest updates and firmware, is this true because i've been reading other wise and was wondering, if there is a better update then i've got, cause i've still got all the other same problems!
So what do i do, reinstall, update??? i have no idea!
The problems with the phone restarting and not disconnecting is probably your micro usb connection on the phone. Try cleaning it.

Hi there,
I have a Pantech Vega Iron IM-A870L that is suffering from Baseband Version Unknown issue.
By now I am pretty sure that it is a hardware fault and the baseband chip is gone.
I just want to use it as a none GSM device, but if I let it on for a while, it takes battery juice pretty quick. Like 30% gone in just 3 hrs idle (no usage). The batter stats show that "Android System" is responsible.
Also the cell is working very slow and hangs on mobile network related pages. Like if I try to view mobile network settings etc. If I press power button to turn of screen, I cannot turn it back on until upto 5 mins, it just wont turn the screen on, because I guess at this event too it tries to access the baseband.
In the UMTS menu secret page ##7593#, I get a message something like "rild is not reachable".
When I go to info secret menu *#*#4636#*#* and then Phone Information, it shows a white screen then black screen and no activity. I can press the back and home buttons to activate the task manager though and kill this page.
I understand this is because it keeps on trying to access baseband and it does not find it.
I have two questions:
1) Is there a sure way to find out if it is a hardware fault in baseband or just a s/w fault? My phone uses custom ROM and is rooted.
2) Is there a way to tell the os that there is no baseband chip in the cell and it should not try to contact the baseband chip. Just like it works for tablets without sim card.
Thanks
It looks like my phone's baseband chip is intact.
Past few days I flashed a Lollipop ROM and the phone got stuck on startup. So I downloaded another JellyBean ROM and flashed it. The phone started but the baseband issue was still there.
After few days, when I restarted the phone, it suddenly asked me for usim, I turned it off and inserted sim and then turned on, and the phone was working perfect! like no issue at all!!! baseband was showing some version as well as calls were going out and everything.
After a while, suddenly it gave me an error like:
System restart due to application operation error
if you detach battery now, may seriously damage your phone
so I waited for the phone to restart and the baseband was gone again
But after that, it is doing the same thing on and on, it suddenly shows baseband and then after a while phone shuts down with message and then baseband again unknown.
This gave me the idea that the hardware is intact, and there is no problem with it. Only the rom is not good.
If I can get the proper rom for it, and can flash it, then may be all these problems go away.
I do have a .binx rom but the method to flash it using the IE page does not really work. it gives me some USB error while all my usb drivers are installed. I will give it another try though.
But atleast I have found out that there must be a solution to my problem and my phone is not actually bricked!
I will update the post as there is any further development.
Hi,Brothers
I have a serious trouble with my phone.
My phone's model is sm-g5108q(SAMSUNG G5108Q Galaxy Core Max).
It is manufactured in 2014 and of course it's old phone.
Oneday when i power on my phone, i can't input password because keyboard is not appearing.
It seems samsung keyboard error.
Password type is normal password(not pin,pattern,face,fingerprint)
I reset my phone lots of times, but always the same results.
I can't perform the Factory reset becauseof loss of data.
I googled my issue all day long, so i found solution. That's the way to use usb-key board(with otg cable)
After i connected usb-key to the phone (with otc cable), but nothing happend, I disappointed.
I tried it on other phone, usb-key works well on lock screen on that phone.
I looked thorugh my phone,omg, my phone turned into Emergency mode(i don't know the reason).
In Emergency mode, it didn't permit to connect other device to save battery.
I googled again to find the method to disable Emergency Mode.
On Recently produced phone, after pressing power button, there was a menu "Enable/Disable Emergency Mode".
But my phone is old one, so in order to disable Emergency mode, i think i should login my phone.
So i can't do anything.
To use usbkeyboard, i should disable Emergency mode.
To disable Emergency mode, i should login phone.
of course, i know my password.
Please help me, i will appreciate any solutions or advices.

Hi,
I have a problem with my LG G5 (but saw it happens in other LG phones)
I have a PIN screen lock and I changed it a couple of days ago.
I was talking on the phone when it restarted (I remember the battery was hot).
Now the phone is on "Secure startup" and I had 30 tries to unlock it (15 remained).
Can't add link because I'm new, screen from 2017 post on this forum, /showpost.php?p=71690001&postcount=27
I have the "white" screen (and can't get to the "black" screen, more details down).
I saw a number of posts on this issue.
I can only enter PIN (no character keyboard).
I tried the current and previous PIN. Also tried: 0, 0000, 00000, PUK code.
Some of those tried also on safe mode.
When tried to fill the screen with zeros as much as possible and tried to unlock, I got a screen that said something like (translated):
In order to open the lock, turn off the phone and power it on again.
Did it but didn't change. Than I thought I should have pressed restart (instead of turning off and then on) but didn't got to this screen, just stayed on the same screen with one try less.
I can get to factory reset, only this option yes/no (can't add link because I'm new, on Youtube: /watch?v=6rQNENaJYZg)
I don't want to hard reset because some files are not backed up.
Also can get to Fastboot mode and Download mode.
If I restart (or power off and on) the phone is on flight mode.
I can call to emergency numbers, and when I call and hangs up, suddenly there is a cellular connection and 4G data.
In this situation I can receive calls, but still can call only emergency numbers.
The phone is not rooted and I don't use special ROM or something like that.
From time to time it makes tick sounds (like pressing a button) every few seconds. The rest of the time it doesn't make any sound.
The computer recognizes the phone and installs the driver - "Android bootloader interface" but I can't see the phone on my computer.
Also tried to connect through Google Find but it can't locate the phone and the lock option there doesn't seem to do anything (writes request sent).
There is a problem contacting stores because of the Corona.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks very much!
Edit: I also have a memory card, do you know if the data on it is OK? (I don't have a card reader)
