Froyo Update Issue

I could get my Fascinate to update at all since I owned it. Even the techies at Verizon could not get it to update. On saturday(3/12) they told me that they had to replace my phone before had hardware issues from the get go! How many phones would be exposed to replacement if the froyo was pushed to them!!!!!

There were a bunch of phones that came from Samsung that would not update OTA correctly. Verizon has a list of the ESN's that were affected, mine was 1 of them.
A potential Froyo update would have nothing to do with this issue, but it is always a concern with OTA, does it cause more damage than it helps... That's why they need to test it before sending it out. Look at the result they had with AT&T and the Froyo update... They had to pull it from the servers because of issues....

ED04/Froyo update issues

After reading about the fix for missed incoming calls, I checked System Updates with the intention of downloading ED04. Instead I received a message that an update was available but it was the massive 2.2 Froyo update, not the smaller ED04. Because I was unable to update to Froyo OTA (kept getting the update server unavailable error message), an employee at the local Verizon store pushed it directly to my phone. I'm guessing that means it somehow hasn't registered with the Verizon server and I'm being directed to download it again. No way I want to go that route. Any suggestions about how to correct this?

bluestar,
You will continue to get the download message until you go through the steps to download the software update to your Fascinate.
You can find the steps here http://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/samsung_fascinate_instructions.pdf
You will need to go through to complete 2.2 Froyo update.
If you click this link http://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/samsung_fascinate.pdf you will see the benefits of installing the complete update.

Yet another froyo update issue

OK, so I have had my phone plugged in and charging since 8:30 am. Since the update my phone won't totally charge...AND the LED light is now flashing red and green. Before when it was plugged in it was red and when it is totally charged it would go green. Any suggestions or thoughts?

Maybe it is just my device, but I have noticed when the standard battery was in my phone, and plugged up to my PC thru an old BlackBerry USB cord, it never charged, but when I went home and used the charger that came with the phone and put in the extended battery, it charged much faster ...
I remember way back when I had a LG Dare that only the charger that came with the phone would work although I had chargers from other devices that would fit the charging slot.
Again, it may be just my device, but it appears now to only charge with the delivered charger ...

Minimize Droid X Issues After Froyo Update....

This has been verified as being the best way to stop a number of the issues that has developed after doing Froyo update, the system seem to keep the 2.1 app and settings during installation process and this seems to cause a number of incompatible issues with a number of devices.... Follow this process after completing Froyo Update to avoid problems..
Follow these settings during restore to avoid issues being restored automatically.
1. Uncheck "Back up my data" under Settings/Privacy
2. Click Factory Data Reset/Reset Phone
3. After reset is complete only Active Phone but do not input Google Email information
4. Once phone is at homepage go back into Settings/Privacy and make sure the Automatic Restore option is unchecked, even if grayed out, activate "Back up my data" and quickly disable "Automatic Restore"
5. After being sure that the Automatic Restore option is off it will be safe to log into Google and you can continue installing preferred apps and custom settings.
This process will stop all applications and settings from restoring automatically and restoring original issues that usually resolve a number of issues.

Is there a point where you will want to turn this back on?
Yes, your contacts is saved on Google's account and they do not restore to device until you log into your Google account. The phone uses this information to verify your device for person information.
I didnt place the step to run Backup Assistant and place backup password, this will complete the restoring process of contacts.. And about the couple of a contacts not backed up mean that the backup app wasnt run after contacts being added, its wise to always run Backup Assistant as soon as you change or add a contact.

I don't recall explicitly "accepting" this 2.2 "Froyo" update.
I woke up one morning and found it installed on my DroidX.
I was on a business trip with 50% battery left when it occurred.
That was certainly not the time I wanted to do a major update.
That issue aside, I noticed my phone under 2.2 would frequently freeze for about 15 seconds when I was doing basic things.
I did a soft reset (took battery out for a while), and the issue seems to have gone away.
My "Backup my data" setting was (had always been?) unchecked, so I don't plan on doing a hard reset.
You are not being forced to do a Factory Reset but since the update has been released a number of user reported issues with device and a large amount of their issue was coming from settings and apps from 2.1 not being removed during update process and this process has resolved a number of users issues and from the last part of your post you are having similar issues. But a hard reset is your decision.
Also the "Backup my Data" isn't the issue completely, its the Auto Restore option, it runs at startup automatically if checked or not, this is why the instruction reported to enable "Backup my Data"and then disable "Auto Restore" option.

Froyo update for the AC100

Thanks Toshiba for the Froyo update for the AC100. Bring back the AC100 Forum, please.
Don't give up on this kind of product.
Some have complained that the keyboard layout has changed after the update. Use CTRL+space to change it back. Sometimes restarting the browser helps.
Youtube works now in the Android Browser and Dolphin. Videos and Flash content plays.

Another reason was if I received a new GMail message, then the Mail app takes the unit out of standby.
So I turned automatic checking for mail to "Never".
{quote}
Mail app btw has an option to check mail in standby, as i understand it should not wake it up or should put it to standby after check. And here we found the real problem. Device never go to standby itself, so if it was woken up by some even intended activity it will eat your battery until you take care of it.
{quote:title=gunnar-mobimation wrote:}
After I did this the AC100 has remained in standby for some time now...........

Mine still woken up even with disabled wi-fi. I'll try to analyze logcat later.

Cheer up Toshiba !
Not all is lost regarding the AC100 even though it took a serious hit with all the bad reviews when on Android 2.1.
Now on 2.2 a lot of issues are gone. Give it some promotion, run a forum, etc. Nice unit and you did a great job getting
a 2.2 upgrade out.
{quote}
Agree, next should be Android 3.0, Google market and listening to your customers. Btw, you know that Nvidia released Tegra zone app to promote games for Tegra platform. It's really amazing, but i'm tired to download apps trough my phone... AC100 is a *%50* of tegra based devices available on the market and it DOESN't have an app from nvidia to promote it?!
Stop killing your own product. Be a bit flexible, it's great hardware, don't destroy it with attempts to create your own walled garden. The major part of Android system is a huge Google Android Market.

Samsung Continuum Froyo Update Problems

Hello,
Verizon pushed out the update to Froyo Android 2.2.2 to my Samsung Continuum earlier this month (about 15 months after they said they would when I bought the phone). The download and install went smoothly for the most part, but there are some minor issues and a couple of significant ones. The update definitely reduces battery life. I'm not a heavy phone user, but now my battery life has dropped from a couple of days to less than one. Now I have to keep a cord or spare battery handy.
Also, switching from mobile data to wi-fi, which used to be perfect and seamless, has now become hit and miss. Three-fourths of the time it works, but the rest of the time it just won't connect to the wi-fi network. This is really annoying, especially at home where I have a great signal. Once the wi-fi connection fails, most of the time you need to manually go and search for the network. Prior to the update, the phone would almost always recover from a dropped wifi network connection automatically.
The most significant issue, however, is the disappearing text messages ( SMS). The Continuum has a small secondary screen below the main screen referred to as the ticker. Apps will automatically move to the ticker as you bring another function into focus ( very handy when you are using the phone to talk or surf on the web and the music plasyer controls drop down to the ticker, for example). Also, notifications ( SMS, RSS, caller ID) appear in the ticker when another app is on the main screen.
Unfortunately,I have seen several times since the Froyo update where you are using another app (like the web browser especially) and an incoming text message will appear on the ticker (like it should), but then not appear in the text messaging app when you go to reply to the message. It simply vanishes after displaying on the ticker. Since the ticker truncates longer messages, this is a bad thing.
This is a SERIOUS bug and needs to be fixed immediately.
So has anybody else noticed this, and is there any chance Verizon will ever fix it?
Thanks,
Tony

I have noticed the empty home screen issue. I usually lock the screen, wait a few seconds and unlock it. Most of the time that returns things. It's a little annoying, but not as annoying as not getting the update was.
I have actually seen my battery last 20-25% longer since the update. The phone has been more efficient in that area. I had heard that was one advantage of the Froyo update (and have heard Gingerbread is even better, but we'll never see GB), and have experienced it.
I think I've noticed a couple of times where texts have not appeared in the app after having shown up in the ticker. I usually have my phone on my hip, in a holster, and on vibrate, so I may not have seen all of them. I haven't had people tell me I didn't reply to their text, though.
I'm almost afraid of any bug fix for these few issues, as sometimes those fixes create more bugs than they fix. It seems that some of these larger issues may need a trip to the store to settle, as there may be other hardware issues (faulty or failing internal hardware) that may be causing them. They may also require a factory reset, as the update may not have been perfect for your phone.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE. This is a major Problem.

I have provided some steps below that may help with the Caller Id issue you are experiencing.
Try completing a soft reset on the device. A soft reset would be powering the device off and pulling out the battery. Once the battery is removed, place it back in and power the device back on.
Dial *228 and send. Once dialed, listen for the recording to prompt you for option 1 and select option 1. The phone should complete its programming within a minute.
Ensure you are using the area-code and 7 digit number format (ex. 9999951212)
Try removing the contact and re-adding it.

Android 2.2 Froyo Update

I decided to email Samsung yesterday asking about the Froyo update. Here is their response:
"Thank you for your inquiry, Samsung Mobile does not comment on rumors or speculation. With regard to the Froyo update, we recently issued the following statement: “Samsung feels it is important to make the Android 2.2/Froyo upgrade available only after we feel that we can give the millions of U.S. Galaxy S owners a simple and reliable upgrade experience. Due to the complexity and unique functionality of each Galaxy S device, we are performing additional testing and are working to make the Android 2.2/Froyo upgrade available to all U.S. Galaxy S owners, including the Samsung Fascinate, as soon as possible.
Thank you for your continued interest in Samsung products."
I'm anxious like everyone else to get this update. I have a friend who has the Samsung Vibrate, once you have see what all the Froyo update has to offer it's hard to be patient.

Jetsfan17 wrote:
Seeing that the At&t Captivate gets its official Froyo tomorrow doesn't help any either. Fascinate is now the only Galaxy S phone stuck on Eclair. I feel your pain, but waiting is all I can do. I'm not quite ready to consider a "root canal" because I'm not very tech savvy. I hope we see something soon.
you are wrong, the continuum, and I do not believe the mezmerize has it yet, either.

Has the new 2.2 Froyo update fixed the call quality / reception?

For those that have installed the new 2.2 Froyo update, has it fixed the call quality / reception issues?

Thanks guys. I am debating whether to get the droid incredible or the droid 2. I heard the droid 2 call quality is muddy/choppy to the listener.

Why can't we get a straight answer from Apple about updater issues?

Why are there thousands and thousands of posts from people all having the same issue? We try to update IPod software using latest updater, and it causes IPod to no longer be recognized. All we want is someone from Apple to FIX THE PROBLEM! Yet all we get are refferals to complicated articles that never seem to work for at least half the people. Clearly it is a problem with these updaters. WHY IS APPLE NOT FIXING THIS ISSUE? Can anyone give me a straight answer!?

Hi Wolf,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
"thousands and thousands of posts"
There are roughly 10,300 thread with 50,000 posts in the iPod Nano forum, and there are probably another 500,000 who don't even know it exists. I don't there there has been a thousand posts on the updater issue. It may seem like thousands upon thousands, but don't forget; you're at an Apple Support Forum.
"All we want is someone from Apple to FIX THE PROBLEM!thousands and thousands of posts"
There's no need to "shout". I don't think Apple is going to hear you from shouting in a user to user forum. Nor will you probably get a answer (here) from Apple for the same reason. I have a -------- (straight) answer for you. I don't know what's going on specifically (no one really knows in this forum because they are all users. Anyone who would know won't say), but I can assure you that Apple isn't ignoring the issue. They are the quickest to respond to any problem that comes their way. If you would like to get Apple's attention, I don't suggest ranting and raving in the iPod user to user forum. I suggest submitting polite feedback to Apple here.

Is there a consensus on how to solve security update issues?

hi,
i'm writing to you from a PPC G4 (AGP graphics) that will self-destruct by the time i switch off and (attempt) to re-start tomorrow. i will then need to do a re-install, just to see if i have gotten any replies (grinds teeth to the root). it will probably be my 8 th re-install in the past month. i just can'st takes no mores, Cap'n
<exasperation>deep breath... each time i have done a clean install, zero-ed all data when erasing (7 times over, on this occasion), repaired permissions before and after each software update, and followed every advice i could find via google to pre-empt another "Error: underlying task reported failure on exit" and the inevitable hanging grey screen; i have earned nothing but another Disk Utility report of the same problem. my HD seems to be OK - Disk Utility and Disk Warrior both say it's "verified" by SMART (although i've read this could be no assurance...). it's 40 GB, nothing else installed but NetBarrier; nothing saved on it (just 3GB of OS).
i've searched this forum over the last weekend and come across a diverse range of methods in resolving software update issues. i have tried downloading the security update and safari 3.2 directly from the site and bypassing Software Update- to no avail (but noticed that they are quite larger in MB than via Software Update??).
the one suggestion the intrigued me was installing the update via Terminal. why would this be any different? the worst thing about this is that there is no universal way that'll work for all, just individual solutions for different macs??? could my problem be exacerbated by using the double layer (double the permissions to fix?) of a Panther OS with Tiger Upgrade disk?
when i last tried to resolve the "error" with safe mode, fsck and DU Repair Disk/Permissions, which initially failed, i resorted to Disk Warrior, which re-built the directory, and "fixed" the HD. when i re-tried fsck it said the HD was "ok", but i still had the "error: underlying task..." on DU?
is there an issue with the Security Update oo8 because it's PRIMARILY for 10.5 and not Tiger? why have some encountered this problem and others escaped any seeming conflicts ? is this problem also caused by JAVA updates (there are, after all, 4 updates!)
more importantly, WHAT CAN I DOOOOOOOO?
thank you

looking at your suggestion to check /Library/Startup items in the concurrent thread ("Help needed after installing Security Update 2008-008"), i recalled that the only thing i have in this file system is 3 folders concerning Intego, NetBarrier and Virus Barrier. one of these contains the NetBarrier x4 daemon which has no image, just the apple "pencil, ruler, pen on paper" "A" image. i don't think it correctly downloaded, but this the case in every instance.
i'm running netbarrier x4 10.4.5 updated and downloaded on installation. intego Support says that there should be nothing in my "Startup/Login items". i thought they meant Login items (users>login items) because when i take the folders out of my "/Library/Startup items", NetBarrier fails to "initialize".
intego is now on newtbarrier x5, but they say x4 is fully compatible with Tiger???
my baby maybe getting on, but it's strong enough, i just need to know what's bugging it!

10.9.2 Update Issue (VPN) - Eclipse Perl debugger issues while connected to VPN

This post was initially added to this discussion: 10.9.2 Mavericks update issues
I have yet another issue related to 10.9.2 update - Eclipse Perl debugger issues while connected to VPN...
One of the big changes introduced by 10.9.2 update - are VPN changes (security fixes). Unfortunately, whatever these changes are - they "broke" Eclipse (OpenSource IDE) debugger. I am not sure if *all* programming languages (Eclipse plugins) are affected by this, but I know for sure that 'Epic' (Perl plugin) debugger *stopped working* while system is connected through VPN.
Here is the error that gets “popped-up” in the Eclipse:
Timed out while waiting for Perl debugger connection
… and here is exact exception stack that gets printed:
Unable to connect to remote host: 130.10.210.74:5000
Compilation failed in require.
at /Users/valeriy/workspace/ROBO-PROD-RA-685/src/lib/test/Val_test.pm line 0.

END failed--call queue aborted.
at /Users/valeriy/workspace/ROBO-PROD-RA-685/src/lib/test/Val_test.pm line 0.
(of course IP address changes dynamically for each VPN connection session)…
I was able to prove that this issue is related to 10.9.2 update:
Issue *does not* exist under 10.9.1 (I had to revert back to 10.9.1 to get it working again)
No updates were performed around the same time 10.9.2 update occurred (I verified that using Software Update log)
No configuration changes were introduced around the same time
Reverting back to 10.9.1 using Time Machine (thanks god I had backup !!!) fixed the issue
Steps to reproduce this issue:
In Eclipse, try to use 'Epic' (Perl plugin) to debug any perl script while *not* connected through VPNEpic debugger works
Connect to VPN
Start Epic debugger to debug same script
Debugger *does not* start, and "Timed out while waiting for Perl debugger connection" error pop-up comes up after some time. At the same time, exception stack (listed above) is printed in Eclipse's console
I am programmer/software developer, I work remotely (telecommute) and thus have to rely on use of VPN to connect to company's intranet. Perl - is primary language used by my team, and we use Eclipse IDE with Epic plugin - heavily. Use of Epic's debugger - is a *very large* aspect of my work, I cannot work without it. So in essense, 10.9.2 has *entirely* disrupted my ability to work! It took me almost a week to get back to normal work environment, and I cannot afford to let it happen again... I need Apple's development team resolve this VPN related issue, as soon as possible! Because of this issue, I am *stuck* with 10.9.1 and can not upgrade my laptop to any other versions. In fact, I had to disable system updates - just so I do not run into this issue again... I contacted Apple's Tech Support on 02/28 with this issue (Ref: 582428110), asking to raise trouble ticket. Since then, I tried to follow-up on that issue, but do not get any information. Please advise on the status:
is there a trouble ticket to track this issue?
is there any progress?
what's the ETA for an update that fixes this problem?

Am I the only one experiencing this issue ???

My new iPod Classic will not sync with my new Mac Book. My iPhone 5 does, so does 2nd gen. iPod touch. Apple Store cannot figure it out. Tried different Classics on different Macs, same thing. iTunes update issue ?

The iPod Classic I bought a month ago is not synching with my new Mac Book I bought 3 weeks ago. All the software was immediately updated. My iPhone 5 synchs fine, and so does my 2nd generaton iPod Touch. The original computer I synched all of these devices on was my HP latop. I bought my Mac and Classic to the Apple Store for a 'Genius Appt' and they could not figure out what the problem is. The connected my Classic to another computer and the same thing happens. It says device is not recognized. They also took other iPod Classics and connected them to my Mac and other Macs. The same thing was happening. They took notes and said it probably is an iTunes update issue.
I can manually drag songs into my Classic but I lost all playlists because it cannot be backed up as well and they had to restore it. For now I am holding on to it but it's usless to me if I cannot use it the way I liked too. I used it for the gym and bike riding and my last iPod battery died after 6 years. A charge would last 45 miutes. I love the Classic for what I use it for but it's a $275 brick to me now. At least the renewed by receipt so I can get a full refund.
Is anyone else seeing this issue ? The Apple Store employee said he saw a first generation iPad havng the same issue. As of now the Support Dest is unaware of this. As much as I love my new Mac I am disappointed I cannot sync my new Classic to it. Total bummer.
Any help would be apprecated.

By the way, I totally restored everything. It was ok. It starts to 'unrecognize' my iPod Classic when it comes to synching with iPhoto. After this happened all the menus disappeared from my iPod (music, Podcasts, movies synched fine). It seems to be a problem when synching with iPhoto. It was the same thing before.

Unable to Resolve Windows Update Issue in Windows 8.1

Hello,
I recently, as far back as 1 month ago, began experiencing issues with the update service under the Windows 8.1 OS platform.
I found that I was having to repeatedly run the Windows Update Troubleshooting Tool. This appeared to fix the issue with each run of the tool, but eventually I'd have the same problem receiving updates again. My problem is as follows:
1. Windows Update service hangs during register analysis.
2. Unable to reset (stop or restart) wuauserv.
3. Unable to reset (stop or restart) Cryptserv.
4. Unable to reset (stop or restart) BITS.
5. Unit recently, was unable to connect to internet from Desktop GUI, but was able to connect using Metro GUI.
I'm not sure is there was a recent update that caused this issue, but I can no longer download updates for my system, nor can I successfully run the Windows Update Fixit tool.

Hi,
Let's confirm these situations:
Now your desktop Internet Explorer can't connect Internet.
You receiving the same updates again and again.
If I am right, please check that update's installation status from update history.
Then refer to this article to troubleshoot:

Sender JDBC Adapter Select/Update Issue

Dear All,
We have configured a Sender JDBC Adapter to Poll data from the DB2 tables. It is working fine and both the select and the update queries written are also getting properly executed and are changing the status of the flag from Y to N once read from database.
In the communication channel ->
select * from <table> where flag = 'N'.
update <table> set flag = 'Y' where flag = 'N'.
But I have one doubt after executing the select query some new data comes into the table of status flag 'N"., then will this unselected data will also be updated to 'Y' .
The question is while we do a select and update from XI on the DB table and at the same time there is an insert happening into the table from the other end how will the adpater behave in this case.Will it result in missing of some records during next select/update transaction from XI..
Your inputs will be appreciated.
Regards
Amit
