Sorry for the bad title
Hi everyone, yes I'm a nood and yes I've read all the posts (I think) or at least I have not come accross my problem, sorry if this is long but I'll try and make it understandable.
I have a captivate 10.11 locked to rogers, Loved the phone, One day being past 40 and not being able to remember my name sometimes, I told my Brother don't let me get in the pool with my phone on, go in the house come outside and sit for a minute then get in the pool ...arrrg! I noticed right away and took the phone off removed the battery, dried the phone best I could. threw it in a bag of rice and left it in the sun for about 2 days. I put the battery back in and yeah!! the phone worked ..... for 1 day no problems. I get up the next morning and I turn it on but I can't slide to unlock??? So I remove the battery, when I put the battery back in, it doesn't go past the I896 Samsung screen no matter how long I leave it?
(This is where the title comes in) I start to read the forums here and figured well I have nothing to loose, I can get my phone to go into download no problem, so I load the odin one click on it "I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0" now I'm stuck at the AT&T screen, so I play with all button combinations I have read about, but nothing I do will get me into the recovery menu ?? Low and behold after 3 days of playing I get life, the 3rd day I figured "well I may as well turf this" I turn it on and after a minute I get the little android guy with some yellow text and then it goes back to AT&T then loads the home screen??? I'm thinking woo hoo I get the home screen I'm able to put my sim back in and SD and I'm able to make the phone work. So I'm thinking I'd like to have the Apps that come with Rogers so I think, well I'll load the rogers stock rom. Now I'm stuck again at the I896 screen.
Sorry for being long in the explanation, But I've gotten the odin 1 click to work 2 times and the second time I rooted the phone and loaded the rogers rom through rom manager, I got all working perfect but after 2 days it froze again at the slide to unlock screen??? Remove the battery and again I'm at the boot I896.
Can someone tell me if
1. water damage could have this affect? (the slide to unlock freezes or screen not responding to touch after a couple days) ?
2. can a rom take 3 days before it loads? the odin 1 click always seems to come to life after 3 days of playing with it the rogers rom doesn't? When it's stuck at the boot I896 or AT&T the soft keys seem to work (meaning I run my finger over them and they dim) ??
I'm sorry if I missed a similar post but I've been reading for weeks now ? Any help at all would be appreciated.
Sounds like a classic case of water damage. probably internal moisture
check your stickers on your phone if they are white you can get a replacement no problem, if pink it going to be harder try this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073929
Ps. your title has nothing to do with the problem at all, it look like a joke. Next use a more appropriate title
As I bought it second hand I won't be able to return it. I'm just wondering if there is not a way to save it, because I can get into download mode everytime I try and it succeeds everytime it flashes ?
Well day 3 after loading the odin 1 click and I am back, I rooted and change the rom using rom manager, all seems to be working fine (I hope ) I will keep you posted if it locks up again ???
All is good after 4 days so I'm hopeing 3 times, a charm thanks to this forum I've saved my Cappy

Hey guys,
I have searched and couldn't really find anything to pinpoint my issue.
I'm new here and i have a bit of a problem with my Sensation XL.
Ok first a little bit of a story (sorry), i was in Athens for 4 weeks, and i think the 'extreme' temperatures has buggered my phone.
Two weeks into the trip my phone was shutting itself down randomly and when i rebooted it, the battery was completely empty. This carried on for about a week until it decided not to bother switching back on again and the notification light was flashing red and green continuously.
I eventually managed to get the phone on, but the screen was extremely dark and the handset heated up to the point where it was too hot to touch.
I switched the phone on today, the screen is black but it goes on, but doesn't stay on for very long.
I have contacted HTC and it is being picked up for repair on Monday under warranty.
Now that i have bored you with that, i have a few questions:
1. They claim that if it is water damage it will not be repaired, now is it possible that maybe the humidity in Athens (water) damaged my phone, or was it just the heat, or has anyone had similar problems that may know what has happened?
2. Is there anyway that i can possibly get the data (pictures etc.) off of my phone and onto my laptop with a black screen, and also taking into account that it stays on for about 30 seconds max. before it switches off again? HTC sync can't find my phone when it's plugged in, but iirc you need to click something on the phone to sync it with the laptop?
I only need my pictures, all of my graduation pictures are on it. Please someone help? :'(
Also my phone is completely standard in every way, only the factory issued update has been applied.
You can try play with adb.
Install drivers from google sdk or my signature.
Download ADB File explorer
pull out the sim card.
turn on phone and connect it to pc.
If this not working than sorry but i think theres no other way to take it out.
Is one but you loosing warranty.
Thanks for the reply,
I clicked on the ADB File explorer link you posted and it says its no longer available.
I managed to get my phone on very briefly earlier, however it is so dark it is almost impossible to see, i did however manage to sync it to my computer and started transferring my pictures but then it got very hot and cut out again within the space of a minute and the notification light was flashing red and green.
I guess i'll just need to keep trying this and hope that my phone stays on long enough to transfer the photos.

Try copy pictures one by one. But via adb will be better cuz you can turn off the screen.
Heya all,
So my Galaxy Mini started rebooting itself today.. Anybody knows what to do? I can't give much details only that I thought the problem could be the custom rom (CM7, New Experience). I flashed it back to stock, but it's still doing the same thing, sometimes it'll hold out for 30 minutes but sometimes it restarts and I can't even open Whatsapp before it reboots again.
All I can tell the on/off button for locking isn't always working as fast as it should. Could this button be stuck or something like that?
Also warranty is gone, got water damage from like 1.5 year ago.. Maybe that could still have something to do with it.
Thanks in advance,
Sanderth.
Update: I was just viewing a WhatsApp message and it rebooted itself again, please does somebody have any advice on how to fix this?
Bump: Please does anybody know what the problem could be? Today at school I wasn't even able to send a message via WhatsApp
Edit: I'm pretty sure it always happens a few seconds after I pressed the on/off button to lock. I just tried to lock it, got the prompt where you can enable airplane mode and turn the phone off and I clicked the back arrow, after ~5 secs it rebooted, could something be stuck behind this button or could my ROM be bugged?
Edit2: Well I disassembled my phone, probably something was stuck behind my button and fell out or something else was wrong with it.. But the most important thing is: It works like it should again, locking is going smooth now and it really feels as if my phone was better than before XD
Next time I'll open it first before opening a topic on xda, but well.. Hopefully somebody who will ever have the same problem will find this thread and fix it the same way I did

Well to be honest, it'll stick to randomly rebooting itself once in a while, less than it was before disassembling and putting it back together again though (From 5 times in one hour to max. 3 on a day). But trying this could never mess something up (as long as you know what you are doing.) At least it's possible to use my phone normally again.
For the people that don't know how to disassemble, use this: http://www.formymobile.co.uk/s5570disassembly.php
Disassemble until you've got the battery compartment of, then just assemble again.
During the snowfal this morning i was filming with my L520.
Instead of closing the camera, i closed the flipcover and put the little Phone back in my jacket........yes the cam was stil running.
After a while i discovered my error and switcht it of.
No problem.............until i looked ad the video.
The video had trouble playing after 18 minutes of playtime, it froze after exact 18 minutes.
My first action was a reboot.
Then i looked at the video again, and again after 18 minutes it frozed............
I tried to delete the video but that was a big no go............
Instead of deleting the Phone rebooted.
After boot up, the Phone crashed and rebooted again ( by it self ).
After a couple of unexplainable reboots i removed the battery and tried to boot again.
No cure.....it kept freezing and rebooting.
So again i removed the battery and this time the Sd and copied and removed the video manualy with my laptop.
After that i put the Sd card back in and booted the little monster.
Strangely anougt............it worked, no odd reboots and no freezing.
I looked at the video on my laptop and the video was 3.5 Gb and a playtime of 45 minutes.
But i only had clean video for 18 minutes and after that the mediaplayers crashed.
I did some editing and splitted the video in two parts, one the 18 minutes and the rest.
The 18 minutes was exactly 1 Gb.
Maybe i am wrong but is there a link to the 1 Gb or 18 minutes.??????????
The troubles begon after i tried to play that video, and it would not let me remove it......
Am i on to something?
Yeah, could be an issue with videos larger than 1GB (or longer than 18 minutes) I guess... Did you actually put the phone to sleep (power button) before pocketing it, or just cover it? Was there any more actual video past that 18 minute mark (i.e. was any of the second part watchable)?

The second part was not watchable, even after a atempt of recoding.
About the sleepmode, i never do that, i always tick it to the homescreen and then flip the case and thats it.
I wil try to trigger that event againt.......
Odd that the cutoff should be so precise. Do you happen to know whether that was the exact point at which you pocketed the phone, or should there have been more to the recording (or do the last few minutes just show the inside of your jacket)?

I took a shot for about five minutes, instead of switching the cam of, ik just flipt the cover and putted it away.
Once i in the livingroom i laid it down on the table so i got images ( mostly the sayling of the room ).
When i discovered my error, ( it was stil recording ) i stopped the cam and thats about it.
Last night i tried it again, but it won't let me tape that long anymore ( it keeps taping but does not save the video ), if i tape lets say 15 minutes, no problems and it saves the file, above the 18 minutes, it does nothing...not saving anything at all.
maybe it's the format of the SD card? You could try using one formatted to exFat (no file size limits) or use the internal storage, which should be NTFS.
However, if the card is fat32, the file size limit should be 4GB I think?

I will look in to it tomorrow, just gut the Lumia Black update
And.......we are back.
Video's are cut of aprox around 7 a 8 minutes, even when i tape a half hour or so.......
It just saves around 7 minutes...strange.
But i remembered something, in the beginning i used it as a dashcam and taped more then a hour........
So i believe it might be something else..............i don't no about tomorrow, but if i have some time i do a ful factory reset.
