[Q] Queries - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
1. I want to ask if it is normal to get a temperature of 45-55 degrees while on charging or while playing games.
2. Is it safe to install cracked applications from other websites.?
3. Is using torrent dangerous for the phone? Which is the best free torrent app?
4. Why most of the other earphones don't work with the device? Will skullcandy or sennheiser work with it?

Actually 40-45 days back, I have replaced the motherboard of my device and had to pay 6800 INR for that. Samsung care people could not give a solid reason for that. They said the motherboard was damaged due to self updating or due to some application. But I had updated over Kies only and my phone was running well for some 3-4 months after the update. Also I don't know how an application can harm the motherboard.
Therefore am too worried now regarding all the aspects

4. All my head phones work with my device, I don't know why some don't for you.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S II ROOTED & BRICKED

Hey guys.. I just bought my new SGSII a week ago and I wanted to root it. I follow a guide on google and it went perfectly. Then I wanted to try a custom rom and found lite' and dark ROM... And I picked the dark ROM, so I found a guide on your site, for the 10.2 final edition and I did everything it said. I was starting to install, and I was waiting 15 mins and nothing happend. So as stupid as I am, I take the USB stick out and take the battery out too..
After that it wont turn ON. It wont do NOHTING, no download mode, no repair mode.. Its been a couple of hours now and I cant find any answer on google so I wanted to post my problem here so you could have a new case to crack ..
The wierd thing is my phone is warm, and even more warm then when I played on it.. But it wont function at all..
Please, I am very happy to recieve ANY answer
Please provide a link to the exact rom that you attempted to install.

Look for the posts on the 301k Jig. I don't have the exact link but they're around somewhere on the SGS2 forum.
Its basically a microUSB with a 301k ohm resistor soldered onto it. If you have access to a soldering iron you can buid one in 10 minutes with the online schematics and basic knowledge of electronics.
It has been reported to throw your (bricked) device into download mode when no other method works, as well as reset the counters (tried and tested by me).
Once you get download mode, flash stock firmware w/ Odin and that could fix everything.

Yeah, that'll do it. Personally, I would only use XDA as a resource for rooting and not Google..in the Original Android Development sub-forum there is a great guide on flashing via Odin and applying stock firmware (in which, it actually states in BOLD not to tick the pit files.)
Good luck!
Never ever use pit file unless you know what a pit file is and know exactly what you are doing.....most bricked phones caused by flashing pit

Lol!! (Sorry) but this was my thoughts as soon as you said darky 10.2.... that is definitely not designed for the SGS2. If you can get the above USB jig fix to work then great. Otherwise I hope you have insurance :S

Yikes..
If the jig doesn't work and you have to send the phone in it might be a good idea to not mention what exactly you did to make it behave thusly
*edit*
Also, if all else fails you might want to check the debricking service detailed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN7le4GmxZs

It will be a little cheaper if I just sended it to the repair shop in my town, I live in denmark if I send it to US to be fixed dahm ...
Well .. I think for sending it to the US you're looking at approximately ~85$ (shipping fees + repair)
Hard to tell what Samsung would charge if they found out you voided the warranty

You need more than delete root and clockwork .
Read the Return to stock for warranty post .
But as you have no screen do a search for how do i with no screen posts .
Or just take to a service centre and pay as warranty does not cover wrong firmware .

Rom Manager is a very respectable application from a respected developer - it could have saved you from all this trouble..
Anyways - as mentioned your digitizer is completely fried and there is absolutely nothing to do about this except replacing the whole screen probably - which will cost you around 200$ if they don't fix it by warranty.
This happened to Erica (youtube) when she flashed CWM from the Note 2 by mistake.
Next time, either stick to simple applications to do it for you, or make sure you have the correct files.
Follow all instructions properly next time too.

No, as far as I know and as Erica explained, there is a little chip behind the screen, and that what get's damaged.
As far as I know, you need a completely new screen - do some research though.

[Q] Strange beep signal

Hi all i am new to this forum and i am ready to learn from you guys
Ok my problem is verry sirius i have send my galaxy to technical lab 3 time
And steel the same.
My phone is beeping by it self. Not after a call not after nothing
He just beeps when he want no body know where or what is the problem
I am with a huge hope that you guys can help me
Thank you all for help
I think thats technical issue. Idk anybody else xperience this but ur problem kinda strange thing to happen and never happen to my phone.
My guess is some kind of RF interference......had new tv recently and kept getting blocks on screen, turned out it was my boiler relay interfering every time the thermostat triggered on/off......and I'm guessing something is causing induction on your speaker in a similar manner
...
Hmmm mey be you right... So what you sugest me to do?
I am agree that this is verry strenge and i didnt know no body with
The same problem.
Thanks for helping me guys
Well if it only happens while you are in a certain location then that would indicate possibly my suggestion, can you describe the beep? Is it a notification beep or does it doing like interference?...or?
..
This is hapening every where.. Its not a notification beep i have
Never hear beep like that... I am now at work in afew hours ill
Come home ill try to record the beep...
It's not what I suggested then, e recording would be very helpful :thumbup:

Well it's not a notification sound I recognize, almost sounds like the connection notification when you plug into charge, just wondering if damaged usb port is doing it, but that is just a guess.
Best advice is flash back to stock Rom with full wipe, and before adding your apps see if it's still doing it, if not then add apps a few at a time.
The other thing you could do is run better battery stats and see if that noise links to any wakelocks

Galaxy S2 dead ...

Hi everyone, hoping for some help.
My galaxy s2 wont power on at all.... I have tried plugging USB into the PC and pressing Vol Up but nothing - this happened after replacing the USB charge port. The power flex cable accidentally ripped off.
I plug it into my laptop and it starts installing the driver but then fails. Anyone experienced this before?
Detach battery, leave it in 5 minute and attach again , power on. I face this problem before(but the cause is not same to you ) and my phone power on after i do those steps. Hope your phone will work again.
Or you could wait for KeithHarris39 who knows what he's talking about with this stuff to read your thread (he's posted to Q&A in the last hour or two, so he's probably around somewhere) & he'll actually give you some idea of what might have gone wrong/what you can do about it.

something worth ur interest...
If you are describing the flex cable that is/was attached to the USB charger board.....then the 'inadvertent detachment' is likely the cause of your issues......
First, the damage that *has* taken place is likely to have caused a lack of charge reaching the battery....which is likely the reason the phone won't boot....dead battery and no way to charge it.
Second, it's likely the PC isn't installing the drivers as the damage caused is probably stopping the PC recognising the phone for what it is.....we all know PC's are dumb, if they're not told exactly how to do something, they just sit there scratching their metaphorical heads....lol
Repairing this part is *highly unlikely* to succeed........the only option....get another replacement.... the only saving grace......they're not that expensive......

I very much doubt you have anything to say to me in PM that would be 'worth my interest'. However, if you still believe that to be the case, this thread is as good a place as any to say it.

Thankyou for the offer, that's very kind of you to think of me that way & I do appreciate it But no, I'd rather not, thanks.
Why not ? You might be a gambling guru for all we know

If you are describing the flex cable that is/was attached to the USB charger board.....then the 'inadvertent detachment' is likely the cause of your issues......
First, the damage that *has* taken place is likely to have caused a lack of charge reaching the battery....which is likely the reason the phone won't boot....dead battery and no way to charge it.
Second, it's likely the PC isn't installing the drivers as the damage caused is probably stopping the PC recognising the phone for what it is.....we all know PC's are dumb, if they're not told exactly how to do something, they just sit there scratching their metaphorical heads....lol
Repairing this part is *highly unlikely* to succeed........the only option....get another replacement.... the only saving grace......they're not that expensive......

Thought as much but only just got back on here. Thanks for your time. Already ordered the bits that all arrived today ( except I missed the bloody posty )
So I will let you know how my soldering skills hold up after years of being dormant! The board itself seems fine... just kicking myself for giving it that little pull and forgetting that the power button is stuck on. Doh!! The phone is my old one and now belongs to the Mrs... wasn't too happy with me lol. So much so, and I'm sorry to say she switched to the dark side.. iPhone.
Now I think I'll see what ROMs are good for the s4... easy rooted it from day one but now I feel ready for a change. First android I've never completely changed

Ok so I reattached the parts.. but still won't boot up. I plug it into the laptop and connect to Odin.. the id:com turns blue and unknown upload mode is on screen... but it just hangs and does nothing any ideas?
