I was wondering if anyone else had these issues with their DNA and if there was a fix for any of them. First, after moving pictures around from folder to folder or deleting them using any file manager, the gallery doesn't recognize the change until plugged into a computer. If I move a picture, it will still appear in the folder that it used to be in in the gallery, and when I try to open it, it gives me that triangle with the exclamation point error symbol. The second issue is the volume. I notice an increase and decrease in volume on every "notch" except for the first three after silent. If my phone is on silent, I can then hit volume up and the volume will come up, but then for the next two times I push it the volume stays the same. Only on the fourth press does it begin to change. The third issue is that my phone can only turn off if it's not plugged in. If I turn it off while it's charging, or turn it off then plug it in, it instead boots into recovery. I have all of these issues on every Rom I've tried, any help would be great.

Every time I answer a call or push the send button to start a call, the screen goes blank, all external buttons do not work, and the 4 soft button are not functioning. I have to wait for the other person to hang up to end the call, and even then none of the screen or button functionality returns. I have to remove the battery and reboot the phone every time. Anybody seen this or experiencing this?
Running CM 7.0.2 Stock (no OC kernel, no GPS patch)
Edit: I found that plugging in the usb cable resets the screen and brings it back to normal. there has to be a setting or tweak thats causing this
I have a problem with my Galaxy Tab 10.1, yet can't seem to figure out where to start troubleshooting.
Having the Tab since it was released, until now, I had yet to experience any problems whatsoever. But upon turning (or trying) to turn my Tab on, all that welcomed me was a black screen. I know the various button combinations, screen rub trick, and holding the power button long enough to help boot the Tab up but none of this worked. I thought maybe my battery was dead (even though I has seen it at about 60% before the problem) and decided to plug it in.
Once plugged in, the battery charging indicator came on and looked like it was about to show the battery filling up. Instead, the screen turned off immediately one second later and then popped up again with the battery icon. It would then just go on and off. Holding the power button would result in the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" welcome screen, but this would transition back to the battery icon, and turn off as usual.
I was able to access the two icons (box with an arrow and android; and android with download underneath) by holding power and vol. down. Clicking on the first icon with the box would just turn off the Tab and restart the battery icon. But clicking on the android that has the word download underneath takes me to a screen that I don't know what to do with.
This all happens while plugged in to the charger, and goes away immediately (turns off) if I take out the cord. I have tried to use the NVflash method but am basically stumbling in the dark because my computer doesn't recognize the Tab when I plug it in. It does say installing device when plugged in, but I cannot find it under devices.
Any help would greatly be appreciated!
P.S. My Tab (32 GB) has an unlocked bootloader, but the unlocked sign does not show up when I plug it in and and the Samsung welcome screen breifly pops up.
I am not a developer, so ultimately someone else will help you more than I, however the fact that you can get to ODIN means you will be able to save your tablet. There are some posts in the development section about using ODIN (that’s where you go after selecting the icon on the right), but you will be able to flash everything you need to in order to get back on your feet from within ODIN.
Hi you all wonder full people
i am having a problem with my vibrant when i shut down completely. Right now its rooted and running the 4.2.1 hellbean rom. this problem has been happening before i even installed the 4.2.1.
So what happens is that after shut down the screen is turned off and this loading circular icon keeps flashing on the screen and wont stop.
Also when i connect the usb wire to the phone and try to turn it on. The android guy pops up doing some construction work with a spade and tells me to do not turn of power downloading or something like that. its in yellow. it can be real problem turning the phone on.
So question is how do i make my problems go away?
only way to turn this phone on right now is to connenct it to the charg er and then turn it on
The android guy and triangle is download mode, don't know about the other.
I am Jack's inflamed sense of rejection.

sow how do i stop it from going to download mode. cuz right now the only way the phone starts is by plugging it in to the charger.
Well you could try using Odin to go back to stock but I'm not sure if that will help.
What does it do after download mode pops up?
Your situation is very unique.
Would you prefer my usual method of conflict resolution?

it does nothing after the download mode popup .
right now the major problem is the loading icon that pops up after i shut down the phone the only way to turn the phone on was connecting my charger to the wall and then my phone and then turning it on.
recently i deleted many folders from the internal memory when connected to the computer because there were some apps that i deleted a long time ago but they left there folders. So perhaps in the cleanup duty i deleted something important?--> this was before the flashing of the new rom.
and whats your usual method to resolve conflict. sell the phone?
I think you might have issues with power button/volume rocker.

I am going to explaing my situation again just to make things clear
Main problem wont turn on after shutdown unless connected to charger on the wall
The phone is showing a loading icon a smal white frayed circle in the middle when its turned off continuosly flashing.
The phone wont turn on unless i connect it to the charger that is connected to the wall and press the up volume button and the power on button.
When its connected to the computer through usb it goes straight to download mode with yellow android icon appearing with the shovel
When its not connected to any power source and is turned off the phone continuously flashes the loading icon that i mentioned above.
Also i think this problem might have occured when i tried to clean files from the main sd card that were useless or i thought were useless as apps can leave behind many folders once uninstalled.

update: it wasnt the power and rocker button. Something is up with the power jack. I took the usb and pressed hard on the power jack and the pressure seems to have fixed the problem. For now.
I have several issues with my gt-p7510, ics 4.04.
The first is, there are some files i just can't delete. Not system files, some created by me and others downloaded. I've tried some file managers without success; there's no error msg, they just remain there.
The second is i have difficulties to turn on the device: i have to press the power button + volume down for like 30 seconds whenever i want to turn it on; besides, the device wont charge battery if i turn it off first. To make it charge i must connect it while is on and after that turn it off, that's the only way to get the battery charging animation while is off.
Is similar to the classic "my tab wont turn on" and "dont charge" but, i have to do the trick every time i turn it off. An i dont have battery issues, isnt rooted, has official firmware and battery has never been replaced.
Like i wrote, i must hold down power + volume down for like 30 seconds every time i have to turn on the device.
Any help?
Guys i was in my settings a few minutes ago and i came across a feature which enabled me to open up my notifications by just tapping the screen so i enabled it and went to the homescreen to test it! Upon tapping the screen the phone started maing a beeping noise and a blue line started scrolling continously downward on the screen! I cant turn the phone off ! I only seem to be able to reboot it which doesnt help! I needto power the phone off i assume and then maybe do a hard reset??? Advice needed please
anyone?
What setting did you access I don't believe anybody will be able to help if we don't know where you went and what you changed. The things you mention are very vague and don't really paint a picture of what is happening.
Also if you want to turn the phone off without using the on screen settings just hold onto the power button for about 10 seconds it should turn off, after that hold power, home button, and volume up to go into recovery to reset or what ever it is you please.
Also is it showing you an X and Y axis? If so then you just go into settings, developer settings, show screen updates and turn that off the grid should go away. I am not sure what your issue is but that seems like the most likely option.
