Hi all, On my T-mo GS4, Jelly bean 4.4.4, rooted, sometimes doesn't start charging when I plug it in. Happens with different chargers. However, if I restart it, it charges fine. Until the next time it doesn't. Then another restart, etc. Anyone else out there have a similar problem? Thanks, Jim

Hi all, My GS2 connects fine to my PC via USB & mounts the drives fine. However at random intervals the data connection drops and I have to go back to the phone and "Turn on USB storage" again. It's a real pain when trying to copy a large set of files - figuring out which ones got to the...

Hi all, I'm having a problem receiving incoming calls over my car (Chevy Cruze) bluetooth connection. I'm on 4.04 (I can never keep track of the name, numbers are easier for me to keep track of). Anyway, the connection worked fine with my old Vibrant. With my new SGS2 when I get a call & press...

Hi all, I was just reading a thread about a "USB storage problem". I'm wondering where this terminology came from since USB (Universal Serial Bus) doesn't really relate to storage. My guess is that it refers to the removable SD card storage. Correct?

So... I decided to give CyanogenMod one more try on my Vibrant. So ODIN back to factory setup, root, then flash CyanogenMod 7.x. Now I have no GPS and battery life is down the tubes. The 23 pages of instructions to fix the GPS take more turns than Formula 1. I'm still not sure about the battery...

Hi all, I've been restoring my phone after a disaster with ROM flashing. After doing the T-Mobile KB5 2.2 update from the factory reset I'm not able to root again. Something about a signature error. Please don't tell me to flash some other ROM - I only need to root so I can use Titanium...

Hi all, Now that I've gotten my Vibrant back to the factory OS, I'm currently restoring all my apps & data using Titanium Backup. Of course in order to do that I had to root the phone. Now, can I install the T-Mobile 2.2 upgrade using Mini Kies if the phone is rooted. Do I need to un-root...

Shucks! I rooted my Vibrant a few days ago. Thought I'd make a Nandroid backup. Went into recovery mode - it looked like the stock one so I did the update packages. Didn't seem to change anything. I had pushed the vol - key a couple times and accidentally pushed the power button! Oh, what did I...

Hi all, What are the applications ChocoEUKor, CoolEUKor & RoseEUKor about? I'm wondering if I can remove them or freeze them using Titanium backup. Maybe I should just go ahead & freeze them & see what happens. Thanks very much,

Has anyone tried the TV output from the 3.5 mm port? Many of the exercise machines at the Y have a TV external input jack. I found the docs on the devices and it appears to be a standard four wire a/v connection. I found a m-m cable for ~$13. including postage. Thanks,

Hi all, I've gotten my new Vibrant thru Best Buy - just received it yesterday. Would it take a few days to have the data plan made active? My T-Mobile account still shows none. I tried connecting to my GMail acct and got a "no data plan" message. Maybe I need to call TMo or Best Buy? Maybe I...

Hi all, Just got my new Vibrant delivered yesterday so now the questions start. 1. Is there a way to disable the automatic screen locking and allow me to just press the on/off switch to lock? There are many cases where I don't want the screen to lock automatically - eg. listening to music. But...
