samsung galaxy tab shutting down when i lock it

I flashed a JK rom onto my tmobile tab with voice calling enabled and everytime the phone locks, I am unable to unlock and have to reset... any ideas? I have tried using a button remapper to no avail...

i've hade this before on my milestone, and i had to send it to repair... maybe u can rescue ur tab by flashing a new firmware with odin

Any more help?

did u already try to do a factory reset?
if not, u can do it with these steps:
1. power off the galaxy tab
2. turn it on while holding down the volume up key and pressing the home button (yes, the capacitiv touchscreen button <-- i dont know if this is necessary but i do it always like this )
3. select data/factory reset (navigate with the volume buttons)
4. reboot!
if this doesnt help then post again and ill see if i can help u!
greetings

Can't turn off my HD2 !

Hi,
I have just installed tytung ICS ROM v1.5 for my HD2. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860 )
This is the first time i flashed my phone.
Everything work properly but i have a strange/annoying problem : i can't turn off my phone !
When i press power button a few seconds, a screen who asks me if i want to put phone on plane mode, or change phone mode ( mute, vibrator, ect...) appears. But i can't power off, if i press one more time the power button when i'm on this screen, the phone freeze during many seconds and says that no sim card are found. And just after i have to re-enter my sim-code to unlock the phone.
Like if he reboot.
I don't undertsand, can anyone help me ?
Thanks in advance !
PS: sorry for my bad english.
EDIT: i search on network how the power menu will be displayed.
I found this: http://i.imgur.com/Gz1HH.png
But, on my case, i've just "Airplane Mode" and the 3 sounds icons.
PowerOff, Reboot and Screenshot are not displayed on my menu, why ?
EDIT 2: I found my problem, in general settings i actived "show power off menu" and now it work
Sorry for inconvenience.

I am glad the OP was able to fix the problem. But for anyone that this does not fix your problem, I suggest you go and grab the app Quick Boot from Google Play. You have to be rooted to use it but it gives you all the following options.
Power down
Reboot into Recovery
Restart
Edit: You also have to be using clk as the custom bootloader for Android for the Reboot to Recovery option to work.

You need fresh firmware to check if this is software issue or hardware
download from sammobile.com/firmware and flash by Odin
if problem remains with flashing same region firmware then try another region
after that if still gps problem remains u should take it to service center to check its gps sensor
:good:

I've tested 2 or 3 stock roms (PHE - Spain, and BTU - Uk) And it still doesn't works.
GPS sensor could not be because GPS TEST (google play apk) locates 22/23 satellites in few seconds, but it doesn't gets LINK to anyone...
¿? Please help!
Thanks. Regards.

Maybe you could try GPS fix if you're rooted

Do you know A-GPS? This feature requires Internet connection to work.
Try to turn on Internet connection (3G or WiFi) while the GPS is fixing the location.
This will speed up the fixing process, especially when you've moved to a new location.

What is GPX Fix?

I've had the same issues you're having. My fix was to restore the phone completely. If that doesn't work, your GPS detection might be malfunctioning.

I've done some factory resets... and nothing... thnx!

Re-activation locked out. Any idea how to fix this?

Friend of mine has a second hand note 3 (N9005) he has had for a while and he did a factory reset yesterday trying to clean it up. Now he can't use the phone because he didn't uncheck the reactivation lock before doing the reset. The previous owner can't remember the Samsung account credentials he used at all. I'm trying to help him fix it and wondering what I could do? There are no Samsung service centers where I live so that's not an option unfortunately.
Things I've tried so far:
1- Forgot ID bug (youtube/watch?v=UdH56pUZAY8)
2. Accessibility bug (youtube/watch?v=uvQawp0hfn8)
Neither one works. Any help would be appreciated.

Turn off your phone, and then turn it on pressing and holding Volume Up, Home, and Power button at the same time until you see a warning. Then press Volume Up to continue, and navigate using volume keys and select wipe cache/factory reset with the Home button, then reboot.
Please note that by doing this all your data will be lost.

In download mode, it says "REACTIVATION LOCK: ON"?
