[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mendezj666:
Have you read up on this phone and know how to root and install roms and know how to use odin? (All very easy to do) I just dont want to get blamed if you mess up your phone and want to make sure you have at least two back ups of your nv_data.bin file (preferably on your computer as well as your sd card).

Also, just to make sure, it asks you to upgrade everytime you access the internet on 4g, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pwong9:
Thanks for the quick response. I use EFS_Pro_1.4.7 to backup and restore the efs folder. I just upgraded the phone to SMS-KJ6-beta2d_Stock-Rom_with_Bootloaders-One-Click. I do have two backups of EPS folder on my PC and my sd card. I also made a CWM backup.

Correct. It asks me to upgrade my data plan which I want to stick as long as I can. It works great on 3g on my rooted ICS HD2, but I want the 4G speed. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mendezj666:
K, just want to make sure. You shouldnt have any concern of bricking your phone since you're just editing one file and can always replace it but as with all flashing, just doublecheck everything. Delete the entire efs folder on your phone (you may have already done this), restart and should have a weird imei number of characters. On one of your backuped efs folders, find the nav bin file and open it with a hex editor. Then I just changed around a few of the numbers in the first lines randomly and saved it. I might have used Microsoft word to edit the bin file but both should work. then i put that nav file in the efs folder on my phone and rebooted it and put it back to stock via odin. Then when it restarted it still had the IMEI of all zeroes but could connect just fine on 4g.

This worked for me and hopefully works for me. If not, I MIGHT be willing to send you my own nav bin file that I personally use (which I wish I had at the start since it would have been much easier from the start) as long as you arent in my city. But thats a big risk since it might make my 4g stop working which would really suck :-)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pwong9:
Thanks mendezj666. Please check your PM. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gaz170589:

Now it has locked me out of every network! Is there anyway way to change it back? i really need help on this im a noob!!! please help me

thanks

This is the galaxy s4g forum. You might post your problem in the nexus forums. I have the bin file for the sgs4 that gives a working imei and works on tzones.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
Hey guys and gals,

I just received my micro HDMI converter. I'm having a problem with it, I have tried it in two different TVs. The display is getting cropped up from every side (Up, Down, Left and Right). I have tried both HDMI modes in settings to no avail. I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this? I also tried changing the aspect ratio of my TV from 16:9 to 4:3 and it still crops the screen. I'm trying to talk to ASUS service through online chat as I type this, but since it normally takes like 30 mins to get an agent I'm posting here to see if anyone knows how to solve this. Otherwise it looks great I ran Dark Meadows and a video on Netflix :) I noticed that the subs in netflix do not display on my LCD, might be the cropped screen, but they show on the tablet on a black background while the video is playing.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ready2Mosh:
Look for native or just scan on the TV, you always want to use this setting on your TV as it shows the content in its native form without stretching or cropping, then try the 2 settings on the tablet.

I had this problem but it was. Under scanning. I rebooted the tablet and that fixed it for me.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
I've been googling like hell, but it seems my TV sucks since it doesn't have scanning settings, it only has 4 aspect ratios 16:9, 16:9 zoom, 4:3 and 4:3 zoom. There is a setting called PC Setup, which in the manual it says you can scale the display, but its inaccessible through the hdmi, probably it becomes accessible when using VGA. At least when using netflix it displays everything fine.

So as I told you in another post, it was not related to Sony's ICS. The Update Log of Temple Run also says that it was fixed the ICS problems.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] csifreeman:
Someone edited the original beats audio files making it compatible with Ace.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PsyGik:
Try any of the 3 files found on the forum, cooper*.zip works the best. (I've attached them)

Use Equalizer app (on play store) and tweak the equalizer, I found it better than DSPManager. (On stock ROM). Miracle V4 I cannot say, do trial and error and report what you've found most suitable.

[Nexus S General] twadda218:
This is informational only. I am not responsible for anything that happens. This is if you want to return your phone to stock state

1.Download appropriate rom for your phone

i9020T or i9023

http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/N...020t_i9023.zip

and i9020a

http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/N...3.6/i9020a.zip

2.Copy it to sdcard

3.Install it through recovery (CWM)

4.Restart system

5.Reboot phone into bootloader

6. Hit recovery and once you get the lil droidy and the !, Push Vol up + Power until you get blue menu

7. Go to wipe data/fact reset

8.Reboot to bootloader

9.then go into adb and type fastboot oem lock

By this time you shouldve completely returned your phone to stock.
[Nexus S General] mzalan:
Unrooting is not needed to receive OTA updates or anything. The whole phone works just as before when rooted, except you can give select applications system access.

I had my phone rooted before it broke, and I received all the updates on schedule.
[Nexus S General] Chubby_Skunk:
Honestly... this is pointless.... just like what the person said above me ^
[Nexus S General] twadda218:
The reason for this is basically bring phone back to the way you got it if you have to return the phone to the store! Theres no reason to be rude!

nexus s

kangy ultra 2.2.1

[Nexus S General] Eyedema:
I don't know if I can post the link, but you can search for the Cescomn Nexus Tool (google it). It's an automatic tool that does everything for you (unlock bootloader, get root, get stock again etc) just by pressing a button ;)
[Nexus S General] mzalan:
The Nexus series is a developer phone, that's why it includes UI features not found in the normal series, such as displaying UI refreshes, touches, etc. Warranties, or at the very least, T-Mobile HU warranty, takes this into account, and covers damages even if the bootloader is unlocked, the phone rooted, and CyanogenMod installed in place of the regular OS.

There's no reason to unroot the phone for servicing.
[Nexus S General] Eyedema:
So if I somehow break my phone and the warranty can help me it doesn't really matter if it's rooted, with bootloader unlocked etc.. ?
[Nexus S General] mzalan:
I can't speak for any other provider, but I'd think that's the case.

To be sure, I'd take it to a Samsung official repair shop, not back to the provider. They didn't complain about the modifications, but the first thing they do is slap back a 2.3.6 on it.
[Nexus S General] Eyedema:
I'll phone all the Samsung official repair shop in my city and then I'll give a feedback. I hope you're right, I always had the fear to break something at hw level so..Thanks for your answers.
[Nexus S General] ReVo_007:
does this work with ICS ?
[Nexus S General] mzalan:
Since you're flashing an entire ROM, that doesn't matter as long as you can get into recovery (ICS made some changes there, you'll need the new fastboot binary).

But like it's been said, it's not necessary...
[Nexus S General] twadda218:
Thanks for the info. As far as i knew you had to deliver it back as stock. I was just putting what i thought was useful info on the board!

[Nexus S General] 2204ianf:
sorry for seeming thick but there are some bits I dont understand.

does rom download on sd card need to still be a zip file?

3. install through recovery CWM ? I assume you mean clockworkmods. I don't know how to do this?

9. Go into adb? Having trouble getting this to work.

I'll play around a bit and try again.

It downloads at 115-200 KB/s. That's slow, isn't it? I am downloading the LPF ROM from hotfile and your mirror, and the file from hotfile is downloading faster by 50-60 KB/s. I am in the US.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mdrjr:
Slow or Fast depends on a plentora of factors.

I'm in Brazil downloading at 500KB/s.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
from this thread here.

attached is script.txt, just remove .txt so you have a file named 10bootanimations; and move it to system/etc/init.d and set permissions to rwxr-xr-x

in data/local/ create a folder called bootanimations with permissions rwxrwxrwx.

place as many properly made bootanimation.zip as you want as long as they have a custom name other than bootanimation.zip (e.g. CM9boot.zip)

reboot and enjoy.

If you want to view a single animation only you can do so without moving or changing any of the other files.

Simply Create a file called "bootanimation.use" in /data/local/bootanimations/. In this file place a single line with the filename of the boot animation you want to use. For example:

RunonlythisOnebootanimation.zip

when you want to have random again simply remove "bootanimation.use"

heres a link to my CM9 resized one for our tabs: : http://db.tt/JPVJCiZV

and I will attach a Honeycomb and ICS one for our tabs to get you started.

This script along with rotating wallpapers really helps to keep things fresh. Not to mention CM9 builds :)

enjoy.
