I need to take my phone back to sprint, seems there is a hardware problem with the phones charging circuit. it will not mount to the computer, it will sort of charge, but if you unplug the cord, it just thinks its still charging. if you turn it off, it either just stays off until you pull the battery or sometimes it just reboots itself. it will not charge when off etc.
I tried 3 different roms so I know its not the rom.
So odin is out. I have bonsai rom and clockwork mod on the phone. I don't think thats a good idea to take it to sprint like this. is there anyway to get it back to stock?
anyone help please?
Just to make sure, have you tried putting it in download mode? It doesn't necessarily need to mount to computer for odin to recognize it.

I suppose you could flash something to get you looped at samsung mobile screen.

Agreed, that's what I was getting at.If odin will at least recognize it and start to flash, even if it fails it'll stick at boot screen.

i have got the screen to say download mode, but odin doesn't recognize nothing.
ugg, I got this clockwork v 3.0.0.5 and I tried to run an old update.zip figuring maybe i'd brick the phone or get it back to stock and it won't work with that version of clockwork. I don't know what the heck to do, i can't walik in with it like this.

Just follow the instructions. Good luck. Let me know if you have any problems. I had a bricked epic once and that solved my problem.

yea, odin is a no go, thats the problem i tried odin on two different computers, you want to know how screwed up this thing in? sometimes it boots up and thinks its in car dock mode.
Try a different USB cable? If odin is just impossible, remove sd card, take a short piece of wire with bare ends, have phone powered on, and short whatever you find on the back, fry the board. Sad, but gotta take it out back and put a bullet in its head.
Really though, IF the Sprint employee even notices, chances are they won't say anything anyway. Never did for me.

how much does it cost for them to fix it? tried 2 different cables and i know they were working, i know its not the cable because, when i plug in the charger, it doesn't ring up usb debugging when that is selected and you only supposed to be able to deselect or select usb debugging when the cable is out, but I can toggle it on and off with the cable in or out.
Go to another phnes thread
Maybe the EVO
Download a rom from there and then flash it through cwm

since i'm rooted and they would be foolish not to notice i'm rooted and it seems there is no way for me to unroot or go to a stock rom, would it be better to just brick the thing? i hate to do that do to the fact that then i'm stuck without a phone. Plus what if I brick it and they find out it was rooted? can they do that?
If its truly bricked, no they can't. Them knowing its rooted isn't that big of a deal, they'd either attempt to revert it to an official build anyway, or they'll tell you they can't take it that way, as in bring it back stock.
I've taken in 2 Epics for hardware issues, one was screen, the other keyboard. Both were rooted, one was on stock build and the other on custom rom. They restored stock software to the custom rommed phone before they decided the screen was actually broken lol

While that would be the "smart" thing for a company to do, Sprint's official policy on rooting is that they will revert it to stock if they see that it's rooted during any repairs.

apparently the policy has changed, as after waiting an hour and a half, they came back and said its rejected because it was flashed and i lack common sense apparently when I mentioned that it doesn't say anything about that anywhere.

You should choose update driver in device manager and allow Windows Update to search for new drivers.
Could also be a bad cable. They are cheap crap. Get a Blackberry or Palm Pre cable.

I doubt the cable "went bad," more like "was a ****ty cable from the get-go." The stock cables are notorious for having connection issues, especially when using Odin or Heimdall.
Thought the cable was bad so i tried wifes evo w same cable and it connected instantly
Can the charging port go bad and only allow a charge and not a data transfer.
So im back to square one phone stopped connecting to pc since update to gingerbread
Any suggestions or insight on the subject
Plz no stupid grammatical comments or sum other dumb **** thnx

What type of cable is it I know lg ones don't work for samsung but will for the evo for some reason. Also it could be windows screwing with you. Is it showing it as an unknown device if so I know a workaround its not too difficult.

I have been searching but unable to get a likely probable answer except the light burned out maybe,but has anyone experienced the back light not working or unable to access light via apps?I just noticed trying to take a pic last night that the light didn't come on,so of course checked all the settings i could think of and downloaded a handful of flashlight apps to test it and none of them trigger the flash light it acts like it is working no errors or force-closures,co which leads me to believe probably light burnt out is this common?also does anybody know any things to check in the system or settings to make sure something didn't get deleted or corrupted .it is weird in the last 2 weeks my USB port stopped working and now the light isn't working ie flash..I did recently flash pimp my ROM and updated to the newest 4EXT RC other than that nothing major has been changed..any ideas please if you can post anything you got to help out it would be great..:crying:
I did try another ROM along with a FULL WIPE formatted system as well. So it doesn't seem to be a ROM issue.But not sure . I don't knowif it is possibly an issue caused by either pimp my rom or 4ext since I am unaware how they are stored in system and if they are wiped during the wipe process.
Sounds like the LED fried. I don't even think they sell replacements for those.

Thanx for the help on the issue ,i guess my light is fried out.Now I have a bad usb port and a burnt out light so no flash on camera and unable to access via bootloader because of usb ,funny thing is it still charges, so (usb) it partially works .I think it is time to retire this bad boy.

So... I cannot turn on my Asus tf101 unless I plug it in to a power source, once the screen lights up I can unplug it immediately and it functions normally when turned on. I bought this device refurbished from best buy a few months back, I dealt with the issue but now am looking to sell it. Any ideas on how to fix this? I have never rooted the device, however I have tried factory resets and cold boots.

Are you holding the pwr button long enough. If so,it sounds like the switch is bad.
I hold the power button for 12 seconds and try it with different variation holding volume keys. It functions fine when the device is powered on.

It could be a bad battery or your charger is only giving enough to power the device on. I would try a new charger first.

Do you have the keyboard docking station for it?
Are you on custom ROM or OEM?
What "app killers" are you running?
Some custom ROM's have had similar issues a long while back. maybe yours is getting that issue IF your running custom.
Keyboard dock, if you have it, does it do the same thing for powering on, where it needs to be plugged in to start the screen?
I only ask about the app killers because I had experienced a similar issue about a year ago due to an app killer I had installed. Removed it, and the phone worked fine. Put it back on and it reverted back to having to be plugged in to start the screen.
Have you tried a clean wipe of everything on the tablet? And I do mean CLEAN, no dirty flashes here (keep your pants on bud).
Lastly have you given the charge port a good ole blow out lately? Long bursts aren't really going to do any damage, but I would stick to short quick bursts of compressed gas, again NO VACUUM CLEANERS. They create static and the charge port is quite susceptible to static discharge.
I know your pretty intelligent, but let me put it out there again. DON'T be a fool and use alcohol on your tool.
This post made me laugh. I do not have the keyboard docking station. I have never installed any task killers as I do not believe in them. The tablet has been running the stock ROM the whole time and has never been tampered with.

But you never said if you gave the ole girl a good ole cleaning in the slot.
I would venture to say that you need to send it in to Asus or take it back to Best Buy (if your able to). It sounds like there may be a voltage issue with the digitizer or the inverter.
And NEVER EVER EVER Invert your digits while cleaning out the slot.
You also didn't say if you went deep up in the ole girl and gave her a good rootin.
I'm working with Asus right now and of course there's something wrong with my serial number. Nerve been rooted. Blew it out and that did nothing.

Please keep us posted as I am curious to know how ASUS customer service is to deal with.
Well, I am trying to send my TF to Asus to fix the problem and they are a bit annoying. I have just dealt with HTC before and that was wonderful, but here they have send me 4 emails asking me to wipe, to update and to do everything that I have already done, and after that they have sent me to another web to fill another questionary. With HTC I just had to told them the IMEI and in 4 days I had my phone back
I had similar issue with mine. It was one of the reason I took back to best buy and used the buy back.
I then picked up the Nexus 7.

I had a similar issue, do you use your device often ?
I figured out after a couple of months that each time it showed this behaviour the battery was in fact empty and it was in fact the root of the problem.
My transformer take much longer time to boot when plugged even with a full battery, and when it's empty it doesn't boot at all.
I must plug it, wait for it to be enough charged to boot unplugged, and do so. Then plug it back when started.
Considering that the transformer on stock cannot shut off when plugged to its keyboard (or even to USB ? Or is it just mine ? When I shut it off plugged to the keyboard then close it, it boot on again) When the tablet is left for several days unused the battery will be empty.

Do the power and volume buttons work normally once fully booted? I have had similar issues, one was improperly seated power button, the other was a loose ribbon cable way down in the guts of this beast. Also, was this happening the whole time you've had it , or after a firmware update?
Right now I'm dealing with one that the screen won't stay on once I get into ics unless I'm plugged in. I went in and noticed that if the auto brightness wasn't set, it works. So I tweaked the settings in display time off when unplugged and uninstalled some screensaver app, and now it's working fine. It was probably the first thing, even though was already set to one minute. Anyway, just letting people know sometimes it isn't hardware. But the op probably is since he's done factory reset.
So I've getting the no sound+drop signal problem these last weeks where you don't hear anything when making a call and then the phone loses all signal. Looked everywhere online no solution. I really need my phone these days and i am having to use skype to make a call which is total crap. Then today all of the sudden the phone stops recognizing the sdcard out of the blue, also can't seem to find any solution online. I don't want to send the thing to repair because I use it a ton. This is really inconvenient.
Just venting here , sigh.....

I am sorry but I read the rules and didn't see anything that said that no venting was allowed here, this is a general forum and in most forums general means general chat, venting included, or anything else that doesn't fit in more specific boards. Now regarding your question I didn't do wiping nor factory reset but I did reinstall the Jelly bean ROM I am using, and also I tried reinstalling the modem making sure it was the right one. I didn't do more because I've read in the big "no sound during calls" thread that those methods haven't solved most users' issues so far so seems like a waste of time. Anyway spending my time fixing the phone is my idea of a good time. I've had it for one year btw.

Yeah usually only when a metal case is used does it ever really interfere I suppose.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Possible problems:
1) Wrong modem. Flash one that worked previously.
2) Mobile phone network problems (we tend to overlook this a lot). Contact your carrier and ask if your networks keep going down.
3) Signal interference (maybe some casing, maybe something in your house)
4) Damaged phone (maybe the signal receiver got damaged in a fall)
I've been having similar signal drop issues. Phone shows 2 bars but no data use, no sound when trying to ring out, can't receive a call. If I toggle 2g, signal will spring back to life and data will show. Changed bloody everything trying to resolve it. Orange UK.

I think you are the one who should go back, were you came from. Seriously right, it's people like you who joined xda yesterday, who have no clue whatsoever about the principles and tradition of xda, who tarnish the name of this great website. The op is talking about an s3, in a s3 forum, were would you want him to go, other than here. If you can't help, just shut it, and let the people who can help go ahead, like the people who posted after your senseless post to help the op.
1. Solar flares got you.
2. Reception problems, UK austerity hair cut, you get 10% of any signal you had before.
