Update

Also the current build of ics slim does not allow the imei information to be retrieved from sim for tmobile requiring a reflash of the modem. You have to download and install a new modem. I used csm5. The guide on the link in this post dow work but its a real pain and requires lots of trial and error. Wondering if google intentionally bricking these things knowing we all got gadget lust for the sIII now.

ICZen_rc1.8.3 (AOKP #39, ICS 4.0.4) + subZero #144 (New Test Kernel just released in mr_pyscho's RootzWiki kernel thread) is Linaro infused ... and I've got to say the combo is THE fastest rom experience I've ever had on my Vibe. Whatever MP did in his new test kernel just blows the doors off the previous performance limits. :D

Btw .. you keep encountering EU again. Really odd unless possibly your external card wasn't partitioned correctly. Not a knock directly on you, but it is a common occurrence lately. FYI, I repartitioned mine directly from recovery.

Also ... Br1cK'd (ICZen) and mr_psycho (subZero) are aware of the EU situation and try to include safeguards in their builds. However, until we know the exact root cause of EU, we're all just shooting in the dark. Imo, it's at least comforting to use a rom & kernel where the dev's are at least mindful of EU. :p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chickenmon:
I partioned mine in cwm also. Maybe my sd is failing its 32 gigs. The ics slim seems clunky and buggy and slow maybe ill reflash again to what your running.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
Man, what a pain to endure. Hope you get settled into something soon and can finally put this behind you.

I got the EU bug a couple months ago and have stayed on ICZen ever since. I did originally get it after using mostly AOKP & ICZen builds, but (as Woodrube mentioned) this is a global ICS issue and not specific to any one rom.

There's always the downgrading option, but that's just not gonna happen for me. I'm way too smitten with ICS performance and ICS specific apps on this "old" phone. Once you've been bitten by the EU bug, it's really a matter of being smart about data backups. If it happens again, you already know the drill. :D

I want to downgrade to I think nero 3 was done by team whishkey was a 2.2 froyo with wifi calling and wifi hotspot . You know any any applicable guides since I can no longer access internal memory?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
Why not just start over from JFD?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chickenmon:
Because the encryption unsuccessful error message makes the internal memory no longer accessible. If I am wrong please inform but everyone's resorted to just used microsd cards and tricking the phone into thinking its the internal mem with partioning tricks and work arounds.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
Using the vold.fstab emmc/sdcard swap (with an ext sdcard) is the only viable method to get around no longer having access to the internal. You can flash Eugene's Froyo w/out an external, but then what do you do with it? Lol.

My suggestion would be to post your situation (with all the relevant details) directly in Merio90's EU thread:

A lot of people follow that thread, so you'll get more targeted eyeballs and qualified responses. Plus, I swear this Odin / ext sd issue sounds very familiar - ie. I thought Alex9090 went through something similar.

Hi guys, I got my S3 this afternoon and followed the registration instructions and have no service on my new phone. I have a premier account if that matter. When I call in they say the service isn't working for the S3 yet. Anybody else have this issue?? I'm in Ohio. The phone has been one since 3pm eastern with bars. On boot up it says sim not provisioned. Called CS they said it was normal bc everybody got there S3 today.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veih:
I'm not terribly well versed when it comes to the workings of phones, so I truly have no clue.

Before I go out and buy one of these expensive phones, I want to know if when Tmobile brings in LTE I will be able to use it without buying a completely new phone. I know that by default it can't use it, however, I read in an article one might be able to crack it so it can...

...and I know that they're going to start releasing LTE to the public sometime next year, and I want to be able to utilize that.

So the question remains - can you actually make it so Tmobile's version will run LTE?

Thank you!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hev88:
Depends what you mean by stock. Each build variation usually has a different radio being that they are region specific build. I know yakju is packaged with xxla2 which is what most roms have by default and I think uglc1 comes from the yakjuux build

Not only that. All of these and more:

Network congestion

Weather

Distance to antenna

Terrain/buildings/obstacles

Usage patterns

etc.

That is why it is so difficult to take someone else's suggestion for a radio.

Try a bunch out for a few days and see which one works best for you. And don't use speedtests. Use your perception of what works best for you and what doesn't.

I'm not sure I'm going to like the ICS update as much as Gingerbread. GB Blur looks and feels amazing not to mention the lockscreen. From the screenshots I'm not sure ICS is going to look better than GB. Your thoughts?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] BytecodeMe:
I second everything that's been said! I'm on the .211 leak and it's smoother, faster, benches higher, and is more customizable than Gingerbread. It has a better kernel(better battery life), better radios and a better interface. That all adds up to a massive increase in battery.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
I flashed the UNIVERSAL CF-ROOT KERNEL by amit.bagaria.

Developer also gave an apk utility to convert rfs partitions to ext4. This boots up the CWM recovery and changes the partition to ext4. :D

I tried that out, but \system was failing everytime. \data, \dbdata and \cache were converted to ext4. :o

Someone recommended another script by the name of skin. In this script update.zip changes every partition to ext4.

The procedure mentioned was just

1. make a nandroid backup

2. flash the script without rebooting (converts to ext4)

3. and still without rebooting, restore the nandroid backup you just made.

I did exactly as mentioned, till 2nd step it went good. Successfully converted. But it could not restore the nandroid backup to the converted partitions. I even tried an older nandroid backup but \system cannot be restored anyhow. :( :mad:

And the phone is stuck on a bootloop. Recovery and download mode are still preserved, so it means its just a soft brick... :confused:

I'm planning to download an ICS rom (RemICS rom).

1. It gives a zip file. Will flashing it just through a CWM recovery finally install the new firmware or will I have to use ODIN for it ??

2. And what about the partitions, do they have to converted back to rfs before flashing?

3. Or suggest how to get the nandroid backup working again ?

P.S. I presently don't have a wi-fi, just a low bandwidth limited edge connection. So, please suggest ROM which is stable for everyday usage and has good battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Lol first time I heard someone fail the procedure. Has been working for me all the time. Anyway try wiping data and se if it boots. Then if it does try restoring the backup. To install remics, just have cwm and any ics/gb rom on your phone. Then wipe data, flash, wipe caches, reboot

Cheers:)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
Wiping data didn't help. It gets stuck on the boot animation and stays there, then goes on bootloop.

Did you too had cf-root by amit.bagaria, before using this script ?

Suggest the GB Rom I should flash ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loneagl:
Flash xxkpe with pit file then ddkp3 or xxkpq , root then remics through cwm.should work:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crazbanditz:
Hmmm... just give it a shot for RemICS ROM its pretty darn good :)

Follow these steps :)

1. Flash XXKPQ via ODIN using guide Here Please follow exactly.

2. Flash Universal CF-Root by amit Here

3. Boot into recovery by powering off your phone then holding volume up+ home key then power button after 0.5s

4. Install zip from sd card-> choose zip from sd card->RemICS

5. After ROM is finished flashing dont reboot. Wipe cache partition and dalvik cache. DO NOT wipe data/factory reset.

6. Reboot system now.

7. Wait for about five minutes or longer for boot. may take a bit longer.

8. Once reboot, enjoy! :)

Anyway softbrick is never a huge issue ;)

Press Thanks if I helped :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Yup have been doing that for stock. Works every time for me. Maybe the zip was corrupted? Anyway just reflash and it will be fine.

XXKPQ or any GB ROM ?

Thanks for the solution. I am gonna try it out soon.

And btw, why have you recommended XXKPQ, won't flashing a single GB rom be sufficient ?

XXKPQ would need flashing firstly with XXKPE, and as I told I have a slow and limited internet presently. So was wondering if only XXKPE-->Root--> RemICS via CWM would work fine ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loneagl:
Dude xxkpe is 2.3.4..xxkpq is 2.3.6..all ics roms have baseband of 2.3.6

:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crazbanditz:
XXKPE is unstable so it would be very unwise to flash that as a base. I highly recommend u follow my guide... XXKPE first because it has all files including Bootloader for gb for a clean install so as to avoid any problems down the road. ;)

[HTC One S] FunkyELF:
Hello,

I got the HTC One S the day it came out. It has been 2 months.

I upgraded from a G2... my main reason for upgrading was the front facing camera for video calls.

I don't know if it is HTC, or Skype, but video calling is laggy, choppy, and basically unusable.

My brother has a SGS II, my fiance has an iPad2 and I can't video chat with either of them. It is terrible.

Do you think I'd have any luck exchanging this phone for the new SGS III?

Do you guys have any tips for me when I call T-Mobile?

Being on a custom ROM doesn't help either... in fact the ROMs for this device have screwed up audio, radio issues, and multi-touch issues making games unplayable. None of that will help make my case though so I probably won't mention it. The main point is that video chat doesn't work on a $600 phone with dual cameras.
[HTC One S] jgalan14:
I haven't really video chat on an Android device since last year so I can't tell you any experience but tmobile might not changed it cause of that, best thing you can do is seek the phone and you put in the rest of the money :/
[HTC One S] seangprice:
I went from a g2x to the One S only 9 months into contract. The phone you are trying to exchange usually has to have manufacture defects across the board admitted by both tmobile and in this case HTC. Unfortunately the One S does not fall into this category, yet. Another avenue is warranting the phone three times or more, this might prompt customer service to issue a different handset, which you still might not get the s3.

Good luck
