How to install in rooted phone?

Hi, the FOTA update has arrived in Brazil :D

But my phone is rooted, and the update fails, and Kies can't do it either.

If I un-root it, will the FOTA update work?

How can I un-root the phone?

Mine is actually a GT-S5830B.

Thanks in advance.

update from 2.3.4 to 2.3.6

I have a S5830D 2.3.4

Baseband version: S5830DTLKI4

Phone has been rooted and unlocked.

I would like to update it to the latest official release from Samsung. I cannot do it through my carrier since phone is unlocked.

1. What is the latest OS version for this phone?

2. What is the procedure to update

Note: I don't care about backing up since phone needs to be wiped/reset to be given to someone else.

I have been referred to this thread but am very lost. I just want to update using the Samsung firmware and not any custom roms. Is there a clear step-by-step procedure to this that contains working links to all the files that I need. From what I read, I will need Odin, the 2.3.6 file, Android SDK.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.Garp:
I have a strange problem when writing sms, mail, Skype etc.,

especially when writing letter k and l together with other letters ex. li (or kl) then the keyboard "disappear"/freeze and then a few seconds later returning.

Then writing next letter ex. h the li combination disappears and only the h letter stands.

It’s very irritating and not useful at all.

The problem is the same whether I use:

dk_zero-cool:

[ROM] ICS 4.0.4 BCM RC3.7U0 GSM/CDMA <2012-06-01> (Bravo CM9 HWA)

Sandvold:

[BETA 0.11][03.06] ICS for Desire[ALL HBOOTS][4.0.4]

LaidbackNikez:

[ROM][BETA][ICS 4.0.4] Nikez Lente [1.0.1a6][02.06.12]

But it does not appear when using:

roalex:

COS-Bravo - ICS & Gb [01-June-2012]

I want to be able to use different ROM due to new updates etc.

Anyone have the same problem and knows why it appears and eventually how to solve the problem?

Ok I have identified the problem. It's due to the Danish language. There is no problem with even different kind of keyboards when the language is set to English or even not if it is set to Swedish or even Norwegian where the type of keyboard (and letters) are nearly or exactly the same as the Danish kind.

Therefore the problem is due to a failure in the handling of Danish language in the mentioned ROM's.

Further the problem does not appears in the ROM from:

marange

[ROM][ICS] MARANGE HTC DESIRE MIUI V4 2.6.1 Beta

How to inform the developers about this "minor" problem when you are a junior member and therefore can't make a direct contact?

Ok I found a solution or more precise a work around at least for

[ROM] ICS 4.0.4 BCM RC3.7U0 GSM/CDMA <2012-06-01> (Bravo CM9 HWA),

which I have sent to dk_zero-cool who suggested to try different Android keyboards:

System settings/Language & input:

Language: Danish

Android keyboard (Default): Danish

A.I.type-keyboard

Gingerbread-keyboard

Skandinavisk keyboard

All combinations created errors writing sms and mails

System settings/Language & input:

My Solution.

I had trouble installing other keyboards under Paranoid Rom, they would not fit. But setting the keyboard to 320 DPI in Settings/Paranoid settings/List of Apps/Scandinavian keyboard and it fits perfectly and i can install different keyboards again. My Favorite is still Gingerbread keyboard

Hey ascsa, I have been using your app for a few days now and it seems to be working well. I used an old oyster card and tagged it to a tasker task. It works 90% of the time, the other 10% I have to scan the card once or twice more before it activates the task.

Great app btw
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ascsa:
Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback!

Interesting ... should work 100 % ;-) ... Could you describe the 10 % failures a little bit more in detail ?

- scan problem? (-> different sound when recognize a tag)

- nfc retag problem ? (-> e.g. app does not start... no pop-up etc..)

- Tasker problem? (-> e.g. everything seems fine ....but Tasker does not launch the task ..)

THANKS !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GhorX:
Using ReTag Pro version few days, no problem found. Only one disadvantage is license check when you want edit tags properties, settings or so - if you have limited or slow connection, lasts very long time (disable net when it happens). But license is not checked in auto-mode, so i can live with it. :)

One hint - for turning bluetooth use "ON SILENT" parameter, otherwise you must manually allow it every time.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flolee:
I'm using it since a few days and it works perfectly fine! I wouldn't want to miss it...

Hi all, received my SGS3 two hours ago :D ... so far ,everything seems fine ... i will double check everything in the next few days ....

As far as I know (and without having a detailed analysis done) i would say NO ... you would have to hack the rom ... but I will have a look at this, if I find some sparetime .... ;-)

Yeah , added the "silent" parameter to bypass the bluetooth user dialog some time ago ;-) .. ..

The license check is done via the google playstore .... should only take some milliseconds with a good internet connection ... on a limited connection it could take a little bit longer .... but it´s done once and then cached on your device for some time .... and yes, automode is not affected ;-) ... I think that´s the best and most userfriendly solution to handle the license checking ... anyway, i recognized that sometimes the google servers are a little bit slow ....:mad:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flolee:
thx man for your answer... as it would be quite important to me, hacking the rom would be fine, however, as a noob as i am (well, studying law doesnt help you anywhere in real life :D) i don't really know where to start... so my help would be limited to testing :(

still, the entire NFC-thing does only make sense to me if everything goes fast, which is not the case as long as you have to input your code before using it.

well, let's hope someone can find a solution :o

and by the way.... still no problems using NFC Retag on the S3 ;)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
I get a license check every 1-2 days. Could you move this check into a background thread and allow for 2-3 failed checks (which could be more frequent than 1-2 days) before you limit the app? This frequent check is rather annoying, especially since you can't skip it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ascsa:
As mentioned, automode is not affected.... So you can tap a tag and perform the activities without any license check for month if you don't want to change your activities ... I think it's a fair solution ;-) ... The license check for the other functions is done and cached via playstore... It's pretty much a standard licensing policy... And should only take some milliseconds...

Which play store version do you use?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:

Can some tell me about deep sleep? And how to activated?

Sent from my naughty Xperia Ray.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kriomag:
it is automatic, when you turn screen off.

download cpu spy app from market and see how long youc phone is in this state (deep sleep), usually its most of the time.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
Deep sleep is to save your battery when the phone is in idle. It should be the lowest freq that the cpu is "stable" and as a result the voltage can also be really low.

Kriomag is right, most of the time deep sleep is automatic (but it can be turned off)....look in your build.prop for these lines:

pm.sleep_mode=1

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0

They will help help your phone go to sleep....

If you set your min cpufreq too high your phone also will have trouble going to sleep....if you undervolt too much you also may have stability issues entering and leaving sleep...and this will also be affected by your choice of governor.

If all this is set up correctly your phone should be really sleepy and you can monitor this with cpuspy, the on board battery stats (the phone should not wake up unless the screen is on), and with better battery stats.

A local electronics store have called me confirming that they have a Pebble Blue S3 for sale that they have saved for me (I pre-ordered), and I can pick it up today. However, I am not sure if it is the blackish one seen in the german video (as seen in another thread) or if it is more blue, as seen on the ads. I asked over the phone, and apparently the box they have is blue, whereas the one in the video is more black.

What do you guys think?

The reason for why I am asking is that I think the one in the video looks much better, so I am considering whether the two colours are different altogether.

Since the shop only received 5 units of the the Pebble Blue, I'm thinking that maybe these are remainders of the initial batch but that actually passed inspections?

I live in Dubai if that matters, and the store is to be trusted.

I also removed

the recovery direcories

the bootimage.p

and the signature stuff. ( it would need to be loaded withe the signature toggled off from clockwork)

I also deleted bootloader.blob.

this is the part I am unsure about. i dont think we need to use this if we have clockworkmod BUT I DONT KNOW. please soemone smarter than me look, my google fu is strong but not perfect

my hope is the following.

it will not alter th ebootloader which we already unlocked.

it will not alter the recovery

it will not alter the recover.sh or delete it (required for clockwork mod to stay AND the sdcard swap to stay in place)

it will apply all the patches.

it will probably require a reroot but that could be added into the update.

now why have I not tried it yet.
