Secured and Non-Secured Servers in Social Hub Premium

This is especially for the Custom Firmware Builders.

Looking at the log created by the z7info in clientstrings-en_US.lan (Social Hub Premium), I observed that data is either retrived secured (https) or unsecured (http) in the getpost string depending on which version of clientstrings-en_US.lan is used.

If you use the old clientstrings-en_US.lan file found in earlier firmwares, of size 81kb (which majority of custom firmwares have), data are transferred via normal http protocol. This is contained in z7info log as below:

brand=samsungssh

gsd=off

gsdurl=http://service-info.seven.com/gsd/gsdService/getPos

But if you use the new clientstrings-en_US.lan file found in all recent firmwares, of size 95kb, data are transferred via a securedl https protocol. This is contained in z7info log as below:

brand=qa010

gsd=off

gsdurl=https://gsd.fra.samsungsocialhub.com/gsd/getPos

NOTE: To activate social hub premium with the newer clientstrings-en_US.lan file, please just edit it as stated in nºs 4,5 and 6 in my earlier post here:

4. Open clientstrings-en_US.txt and search for the string "settings.enable_global_service_discovery_lookup=1"

5. Change the value to "0" (zero), so you now have: "settings.enable_global_service_discovery_lookup=0"

6. Find and Replace (Ctrl+H) all "eu020" with "na001"

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

Yes. I confirm that Social Hub Premium is still working.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] hero355:
Is the facebook push working for you now ?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] spacks:
Pay special attention to item nº4. You need to change the value of 1 to 0. Otherwise social hub premium will always display the expired message.

4. Open clientstrings-en_US.txt and search for the string "settings.enable_global_service_discovery_lookup=1" (change this 1 to 0)

---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

Yes, I get all my push messages (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, Facebook, etc).
[Bada Software and Hacking General] hero355:
If possible can you upload edited 7clientengine.zip
[Bada Software and Hacking General] spacks:
Just take the clientstrings-en_US.lan file from any bada 2.0 firmware.

search for the string "settings.enable_global_service_discovery_lookup=1"

Change the value to 0 (zero).

Find and Replace all "eu020" with "na001" (or any other working server, e.g na010, etc).

That's all that I edited. Do same and I believe you will have push notifications for all services.

Best of luck.
[HTC Sensation] ixon2001:
I've had my Sensation a good few weeks now, so today decided i would transfer some pictures onto my PC using Bluetooth.

Now here were the problem starts

MY Sensation picks up my PC no problem & vice versa, but when i come to try and pair with it nothing happens.

I've turned on discoverable in the setting ect but still nothing happens.

Now i have a cheap Samsung Mobile with bluetooth & this pair up no trouble with the PC.

Also tried pairing the Sensation up to the Samsung Mobile it see's it as it does with the PC, just doesn't connect.

Any ideas what the problem is.

My Sensation is completely stock.

[HTC Desire S] col320ce:
History:

Desire S rooted using "revolutionary-0.4pre4" but otherwise no changes (rooted many months ago).

Crashed during update of Apps (I pressed update all and it crashed it after a few minutes). Had to pull the battery out to reset. Crashed again after about 2 minutes so I pulled the battery again and now won't load past the HTC loading screen.

I assume something fried as I pulled the battery.

I have tried updating the ROM without success - just to confirm I am doing it properly I put the file onto the phone's normal SD card (eg "RunnymedeS-Saga-v6.zip"), start recovery mode, wipe data and cache and load from zip file.

It either finishes loading or says there is a problem with the zip file (I've tried 5 or so ROM files). on the times it managed to finish it resets and just gets stuck on the HTC load screen (like before).

In Recovery mode I have:

-Revolutionary-

SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-6.98.1002

RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M

eMMC-boot

Is the phone stuffed or is there anything else I can try?
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
Ate you still able to boot into recovery?? Try full wiping your phone

Sent my thoughts to your head with XDA App
[HTC Desire S] nenad_l:
i'm no expert, but i'm pretty sure there is still bunch of options for you...

search trough forum, even try to install stock roms (ruu)

chin up! :)
[HTC Desire S] col320ce:
I have tried a full wipe but will try a .RUU file.

I can get into recovery and move about...
[HTC Desire S] col320ce:
Just tried installing from .RUU file using FASTBOOT USB and RUU from computer. And it won't get past the first screen - "Rebooting to bootloader.........."

After all I have done it still tells me I have Software version 1.47.832.1 installed.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Can you enter the custom recovery at all?

If so, do the following and post your result so first we can rule out an eMMC problem.

Set up adb (link in my sig) connect your device to the PC, enter recovery, open cmd (command prompt) on the PC and type:

adb shell

dmesg | grep mmc0

Source : Amidabuddha's excellent guide here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1284196
[HTC Desire S] col320ce:
I can enter recovery and I am on the screen with "HBOOT USB PLUG" when plugged into the PC.

I have set up the abd link but it cmd says "error: device not found"

I assume I have not installed adb correctly or am not in the correct part of the command prompt. Do I need to go to C:/android-tools/ then type adb shell or does it not matter?

When I type

adb shell

dmesg | grep mmc0

I assume I hit return after the first line?

How do I type the vertical line in the second line?

I have HTC Sync Installed

I have the folder at c drive root - c:\android-tools\

I have put a copy of the content of the folder into windows\sytem32

I can't see the phone in "my computer" when it is attached by USB.

[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
There is a difference between being in the bootloader and Recovery.xCan you boot into recovery?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Sorry man.

Another proof that this is a dangerous action on Desire S
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Ouch!

eMMC most likely dead. I'm real sorry man... wish there was anything further i could suggest....

You'll have to take it to the Service Centre, and hope for the best.

I still don't understand, that after all the warnings against pulling battery, why do so many users do it? It baffles me. Honest to God, i still have to figure that behavior out... It's like wanting to brick your phone. :(
[HTC Desire S] gefilus:
I usaly leave debugging on all the time. If it hangs 3 button combo or clear catches with adb and then restart it. Never pull battery out, if you don't have access to PC then leave it and do it later, better do it without risk. And you got faulty emmc before becouse it hanged on app upgrade. Sorry mate
[HTC Desire S] incrediblealex:
Is pulling the battery the only way to brick the m4g2de emmc chip or can it just happen on its own?
[HTC Desire S] gefilus:
Here is a post about what can brick it. Many things can fry it. But still Never pull out battery
[HTC Desire S] col320ce:
I can enter bootloader but the computer can't find the phone unless I go into the RECOVERY (revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4). I assume the text printout is still valid?

In bootloader (after vol down and on) I attach the USB and the screen says (amongst other things) HBOOT USB PLUG (from HBOOT).

C:\>adb shell

error: device not found

Unless anyone thinks the phone is not stuffed, can I brick it further to stop the HTC repair man seeing that it is S-OFF? I have tried to remove revolutionary and S-OFF but can't get anything to work.
[HTC Desire S] incrediblealex:
Not sure If you can brick it further since your emmc is where you write all of the files

Im having the same problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikel719:
Have you tried giving Odin admin rights? Just a thought.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lviv73:
I had this kinda problem on original epic 4g.If you can get in download mode than its not brcked.

Mine was getting stuck at data or system.Radioshack usb is not that good.I had radioshack,orig samsung usb and another genric usb-none worked.Then someone on xda suggested that I get blackberry usb,i bought one on ebay for 4 dollars.

I took battery out and pushed all epic's buttons for a minute or so to let phone discharge.Then I put battery back in,started odin,put epic in download mode and pluged it in using thick blackberry usb cord,I checked repartition in odin and it worked.

This goes for everyone-get the blackberry cord(its a beast),and it will last a lifetime,plus it works when others dont.And dishcharge phone.

If still dont work-just keep trying.

Another time odin was getting stuck on system and I tried rapartitioning about 15 times but it finaly worked.

Or try different Odin version.If Epic Touch is anything like original Epic than its almost imposable to brick.Or instead of Odin try restoring using Samsung Kies or their exe flashing file.

"Well", yesterday I was going to update the Voodoo lagfix with CWM on my Serendipity VII (build 3 and TalonDev kernel) and the 3 button fix, but when I pressed "reboot now" my Cappy doesn't start anymore... I tried to leave the battery and then to put it again, tried to start with 3 button combo (download mode), but anything happened... What should I do now? Is there any solution??? Please help me :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Serendipidy is based on GB, there for You had GB bootloaders. If you flashed 3 button fix (for the life of me I don't know why) you now have a GB primary bootloader and a Froyo Secondary bootloader. My man if the phone shows 0 signs of life it is hard bricked. PM adam or Josh (MobileTechVideos.com) and get a UBM. I wouldn't waste time with a Jtag since UBM is just better. (you could do UBM if you have the soldering skills)

If I'm wrong and there is signs of life. Try the many ways to get in to Download Mode. All else fails make/buy a jig

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hypercore:
I've decided to try and make my own rom but I have one roadblock stopping me from getting me any further. I can't pre-root the rom.

I can flash the rom, then flash su.zip in recovery and have it rooted but I don't know how to make it so it's already rooted when flashed. I've tried copying the su.zip files into my working folder but I get a status 1 error when flashing. The kitchen root also isn't up to date therefore doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
If building from aosp/master:

- git clone ChainsDD/su-binary into ~/ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/system/extras/su (rm -rf the existing dir before cloning), cd to that dir, create a new branch tracking remote branch "gc" with 'git branch your_local_branch_name origin/gc' and checkout to it; edit Android.mk, add 'LOCAL_MODULE_TAG := optional' to it. save the file, add it to git and commit to your local branch.

- git clone ChainsDD/Superuser project into ~/ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/packages/apps/Superuser, cd to that dir, create a new branch tracking remote branch "dev" with 'git branch your_local_branch_name origin/dev' and check out to it; edit Android.mk, add 'LOCAL_MODULE_TAG := optional' to it. save the file, add it to git, and commit to your local branch.

- finally, cd to ~/ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/build/core, create a new branch tracking remote branch "master" with 'git branch your_local_branch_name aosp/master' and checkout to it; edit main.mk, add Superuser \ and su at the end. these will be the packages built on all build variants, that's why we set LOCAL_MODULE_TAG to optional (su is a legacy module, needs to be optional)

this will give you superuser.apk and su binary in /system/xbin/su - my guess is you'll need busybox as well. same thing than the others (more like su), but it goes in ~/ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/external/busybox. clone busybox repo from CM github (current version 1.19.4).

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] richd86:
Hi everyone,

Have just purchased a new Galaxy Y here in China and restored to original factory settings however everything is in Chinese which isn't a problem as I can change the language to English however all the default Google Apps are missing and replaced with Chinese equivalents it seems so I'm unable to use them.

So... how can I restore it to a version of Android something functional for me? I'm on mac os x lion with vmware for any windows apps I need and am computer literate enough to attempt anything like flashing a device / updating a rom but have no idea where to start with this. Have read some docs on Odin but they made little sense at first because I don't quite know what steps I need to take in order to carry out this task. I've found various Roms but these are India, Netherlands, Greece versions, does anyone know of a UK version?

Any pointers would help greatly, thanks in advance!

Update: Just came across http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1465800 so am reading through here however I'm not sure which ROM to go for, the European pack work with sim cards in Asia?

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] mai77:
first thing that the initial setup offers after full reset, is to change the language. It's the button on the the right hand side of the screen. if you press the green android, it's too late. then you must navigate to language setup by memory.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] richd86:
I've changed the language but it's a custom Chinese rom as China bans everything google so I need to get it on a normal UK Android setup or something, maybe the European pack from the aforementioned link?

Current versions as follows:

PDA: S5360ZCKK2

PHONE: S5360ZCKK2

CSC: S5360ZHKK2

Try and check Docky stock Rom under android development. He has european firmware. Flash it via Odin. There are guide how to flash via Odin in his thread if im not mistaken. Hope it helps.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] richd86:
Thank you for this, am just looking at Docky's stock roms now. Seems like the phone isn't locked to any specific network as accepts both Hong Kong and UK sim cards at the moment. I'm a little confused about setting the CSC and provider/region stuff after flashing it, basically I'm in Asia for the next 10 months and will have various sim cards from different countries and want them all to work. Possible do you think? Or will I have to flash to country specific firmware/csc relative to the sim card I'm inserting?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] axilefoo:
Well, Im in Asia country too. I tried Docky's Custom ROM which is based on XX which is European firmware and my phone works together with the SIM provider and network. So, the CSC is basically the language supported by your phone (based on my experience). Thus, Im sure you can use European firmware when you are in Asia country :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] richd86:
Small world hehe :) I'm currently downloading S5360_XXLA2_OXXLA2_XXLA2_by_Doky.zip which seems to be the latest european multilingual build so hopefully that will do the trick. I'll let you know how I get on, thanks for the tips.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] axilefoo:
Cool. Cant wait to hear from you soon. Good luck :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] jayem123:
I think the simpliest way to solve this is to update its firmware via samsung kies, besides its the official update you can get and you'll be sure it'll be safe. Ive updated mine through this method and havent tried the ODIN thing. Good luck though

Woo hoooo I have a working phone, or should I say a phone which I can understand. It took a while because I couldn't find a decent internet connection where I was but having found one the process, following Doky's instructions, was painless - what a result! Thanks for your help!

Asian driver for Galaxy Young ?

Hi,

I really appreciate all the posting which is done on this site, and it has helped me many times (as I often act as the 'family' technician who can fix things).

But this time, I inherited a bricked Vietnamese Galaxy Young. The issue I have is that event though I installed ODIN in its most recent release, the phone in DOWNLOAD mode is not recognized on the 2 computers I usually use on other Samsung phones.

Is there an Asian-specific driver which needs to be used?

Alas, the phone was backed up using the CWM backup, but it refuses to boot into CWM (just hangs at logo). The only mode it boots into is Downlaod mode. But it need to be recognized correctly before Odin can do anything

Thanks for suggestions :)

Marc, from France
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
make sure samsung usb drivers are installed - use rear usb ports not front ones and you can try a different usb cable (there is no specific regional driver just a generic samsung usb driver)

once in download mode connect usb cable to pc

push vol up on phone to start connection (wait a 30 secs in case drivers start installing)

open odin 3.07

if it is connected it will say com then a number in a coloured box under com:id on the left hand side

On MiCode's github you can now download files for building a Moto-Miui-Rom based on "defy_2.3.4_cn" (red and green lense):

https://github.com/MiCode/PatchRom

This is very nice because we now have a MIUI-version with original and stable drivers(wifi, gps, etc) and nice Moto-things like DLNA and (who wants it) Blur.

I tested it and it's very nice. But it needs some optimisations like newer bootmenu, translation, etc.

I don't have time for that but maybe someone wants todo that.
