While receiving calls the screen will go black, You can hear the ring but cannot see anything on screen. Any help will be appreciated. :(

What I do is switch default SIM around from the Notifications pull-down.
Problem is that it only works when the phone is unlocked. Why does that matter you may think? Because when I use Bluetooth in the car to make a call it will use the default outbound SIM, and I don't have any way to swap the default SIM around without taking out the phone, unlocking it, pulling down notifications and choosing the other SIM.

It would be nice if there was some other way to switch default SIM, such as
- From the menu you get when you keep the power button pressed for a second or two
- From Bluetooth with a special fake number. That way I could dial a fake number and have it switch the default SIM around.
- Add the possibility to have some numbers ALWAYS use a certain SIM for outbound calls. This way I could set my business contact to always use SIM2 and my personal contacts to use SIM1. Perhaps using a special group similar to ICE.

These are good suggestions. I don't know so much about samsung, just switched from a blackberry. Blackberry it is a really handy phone.
I do not need pictures, games or anything like this. Just to be handy with 2 SIM's. I thought 7562 was a good idea. And it is. But it needs improvement.

For example, if you dial a number from a SIM, when you redial it from logs, it should dial from the same SIM used initialy, not default one.

Is there any official samsung forum, where I can post this issues ?

Thanks.

Hi mate.

Did you flashed recovery.tar and right after you flashed the stock_recovery.tar?

If you did, then certainly you'll be back to 0 point. If you flash stock_recovery.tar you will be on stock recovery again, and then you will not be able to flash the Super User, or SuperSU to root your phone.

Let me know which steps did you take exactly.

And about the Stock firmware for HK, here is the link from samfirmware.

Cheers mate


Thanks so much for help.
I flashed back to HK stock firmware and flash recovery.tar again.
Finally, I manage to install CWM-Superuser from recovery. :good:

Coming from a pure Android experience on a Nexus S, I was rather disappointed with the Samsung keyboard. After using the Samsung keyboard for a month, it was still a constant hit and miss. And I also did not like the auto-correct features of the Samsung keyboard.

As such I decided to install the stock ICS android keyboard straight from a Nexus.

It is working well here, and much more accurate then the Samsung keyboard.

Hi mate.

You will need Odin Multidownload (Multi Downloader v4.43) to flash the ROM. And you will use S7562XXALHB_S7562OXFALH5_S7562XXLH5_HOME.tar.md5

You need to tick One Package options and then select the file (S7562XXALHB_S7562OXFALH5_S7562XXLH5_HOME.tar.md5) in One Package section.

Flash the ROM and wait the process finish by itself.

I think this will help you with your doubts!?

Ohhh.... almost forgot.

*** Don't forget to use ancora.ops in OPS section! ;)

Cheers and sorry about my english

I find the standard Android keyboard to be more responsive then the Samsung keyboard which had quite a bit of lag, which was the cause of a lot of typing mistakes.

Galaxy S Duos External SD use

Hi all,
I have to say that the app is not so great as it looked :(

It can swap the SDs, remount after restart, that's nice. But today, 24h after restart I found that the internal SD is not visible. Both, internal and external SD, show the content of external one.
So for example ring tones don't work.

So probably solution is still the Directory Bind app and in case of space check is needed use this application just for the installation.

Hi all, I've been trying to find out how I can install SatNav (Navfree/ Navigon) maps on my external SD card but this is proving to be a major headache.
I've tried Directory bind and this app is excellent but although it seems to install to the extSDcard the phone still believes the files to be stored on mnt/sdcard (the internal storage) so I can't download more than 500Mb worth because the phone reports that there is no more storage, even though my ext sdcard has 12gb of space! :confused:
I was wondering if the other app mentioned in the post (External 2 Internal) has been used successfully by any other S7562 owners? If so did it allow you to download maps to your sd card? Some users reported problems and inconsistencies....

Thanks for any replies which help with this baffling issue....

    Here is the full guide. If you like, please press the thanks button, ;)

    CAUTION : It will VOID your Samsung Warranty and set/increase your custom flash counter.
    You will also see a yellow triangle below Samsung logo during each boot.

    Please take a Full NANDROID Backup using CWM once CWM is flashed. This is useful in case you want to return to Samsung Official stock ROM or in case something goes wrong.

    You can flash back to stock recovery if you don't need CWM any further OR if you want to remove the yellow triangle.
    Samsung stock recovery is attached below with this post.

    Requirements :
    1. Samsung Galaxy S duos S7562 Phone
    2. Latest USB Drivers for Samsung Mobiles (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=961956)
    3. Odin Flashing Tool (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32500955&postcount=35)
    4. CWM 5 Recovery (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32500955&postcount=35)
    5. Superuser or SuperSU ZIP (attached with this post) (any one of them)

    Procedure :
    1. Install latest USB Drivers for your Samsung Mobile in your PC.
    2. Switch off your mobile.
    3. Press and Hold "Vol. Down + Home + Power" buttons until the phone vibrates.
    Once phone vibrates, leave all buttons.
    4. It will Show you a Warning.
    Press Vol. UP button to Continue.
    5. Now you will see [Odin3] screen on phone which is Download Mode.
    6. Connect your Phone to your PC and wait till it install the drivers.
    7. Download and Extract Odin.zip
    Open Odin. It will detect your phone on some COM Port.
    You will see screen like this :
    1krfn.jpg


    8. Now click on PDA and select the recovery.tar file.
    Now, it will look like this :
    8FbMS.jpg


    9. Now make sure the following :
    Auto-Reboot is checked.
    F. Reset Time is checked.
    All others are unchecked.
    Click on start.
    Odin will start flashing.
    wait for atleast 2-3 minutes.
    Odin will automatically reboot your phone and you will see Pass written on Odin.
    Keep the phone connected to your PC.

    10. Let the phone boot properly and then close the odin.
    11. Now, for Rooting, you have two options.
    Superuser or SuperSU. Both works good, you can choose any of them.
    so, Download CWM-Superuser-3.1.3.zip OR CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip and copy to your MicroSD card.
    If you don't have MicroSD card, you can copy it to phone's internal SD card memory.

    12. Boot into CWM Recovery Mode by :
    Vol. UP + Vol. Down + Home + Power
    Keep all of these pressed until you see samsung logo and then release.
    Use Vol. Up and Down to navigate and to select, use Home button. To go back, press Power button.
    IMPORTANT : GO to "Back and Restore" and create a FULL NADROID BACKUP by using "backup" option. It will be very useful in case something goes wrong.

    - "install zip from sdcard"
    - choose zip from sdcard (if files are in external microsd)
    OR choose zip from internal sdcard (if file are in phone's internal sd card memory)
    navigate to CWM-Superuser-3.1.3.zip OR CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip and select it.

    That's it.
    Go back using power button to CWM Home screen and reboot the phone.

    Hi again :)

    Someone know what combination of keys we have to do for enter in recovery mode?:)

    Hi,
    Press The following combination for booting into recovery. (Works fine for me)
    Keep all of them pressed until you see the samsung logo and then release them all.

    Vol. UP + Vol. Down + Home + Power On

    CWM and Odin is attached. Flash this CWM package using odin (make sure you reboot your phone into download mode for using odin)

    I'm NOT responsible for any brick or other mis-happening. I tested it all on my galaxy S duos and it works fine.

    Edit : CWM 6 replaced with CWM 5and reuploaded. CWM 5 works much smoother for me.

    Link2SD Working!

    Hey folks,

    Finally got Link2SD working properly on my rooted s7562.

    There are many guides out there so I'll just tell you what I did specifically for our phone to get it working.

    I used MiniTool Partition Wizard (on my Windows 7 laptop) to create the second partition on my 32GB micro sdcard. The important part is that it needs to be FAT32, and not Ext3 as most guides will recommend you use. Ext3 was what I tried originally without success. I was getting "read only" errors when trying to link to second partition.

    I haven't tried the Ext2 or Ext4. FAT32 worked so I'm happy.

    The native "Move to SD card" option in Link2SD does not work, (presumably because it's not natively supported on our phone) but the "Create link" option works fine. Which is what we want.

    I have moved (linked) a few apps over and tested they are working and all is good.

    Hope this helps some of you.

    Regards
    Keliuss

    P.S. Please feel free to thank me below. :)
