Is there ANYONE that can possibly help be fix my phone? I'm still stuck in the white HTC boot screen.

I can only load up in the bootloader.

***UNLOCKED***

VIVO_W XB SHIP S-ON RL

RADIO-01.09.01.0312

eMMC-boot

I need to install the latest software. Is there a RUU yet for the latest 6.xxxx software yet as a PG32IMG?

Any steps to successfully do this would be appreciated.

Could someone with the stock software do a backup, zip the file and send it to me? that way I could put it in the sd/clockworkrecovery/backup and try to make it work.

Thank you.

EDIT: ***HERE IS THE FIX THAT WORKED FOR ME***

Here is how I fixed it: I suggest all others with my issue try this...

Flash the boot.img from this rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1737494

THEN went into recovery > factory reset > clear cache > wipe dalvik > install zip from SD > install

If you need addition details, how to flash, etc. they can be found here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=28262673#post28262673) where I was also given help.

I'm user "telecastertunes" on there.

Good luck!

I bought one yesterday too. I didn't get anything but a confirmation

I just bought one too last night. Got an email that says it shipped this morning. But the shipping label is for the 2nd and there is no tracking info available. So I expect it to ship on Monday and be here in 3-5 days from then...hopefully sooner of course.

Anyone know if the phone would charge faster using a modified short charge cable like length of 5cm or so?

Im thinking the longer the cable the more the resistance....true false?

Using a 2Amp charger and dedicated charge cable
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pvyParts:
It will but not enough to realy worry about. if you have a meter you can measure it but i recon it will be less than an ohm. if you had a 10m cable yes :) but as for the normal <80cm cable no.

So by my maths two fifth's of f*@# all ;)

Pvy.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Damoedge:
mmh i dont know about that, i have a 1m usb extension cable and charge is around +800mA compared to +1200mA without the extension....

This is why i asked the question in the first place??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pvyParts:
The extension cable prob isn't made to handle charging. It prob had small conductors. Plus the join could have dirty contacts. 25% is alot to drop. With 1m of cable.

But if it bothers you try a better cable or a USB 3 one too see if it makes a difference. ;)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Damoedge:
Just to let ye know, i got a micro usb adaptor attached to a small length dedicated charge cable and it works a treat :)

Hello!

Well, I own a Samsung Galaxy Nexus which originally were a yakjuxw but I "converted" it into an yakju. And now when Android Jelly Bean is reaching the surface I would like to know how to update because in the guide i read they said that I may have to update by flashing again.

I've also read this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20843237&postcount=1 But I don't understand anything.

I don't know what "Stock recovery", "CWM recovery" or "ADB" is and I'm having a hard time with this so I would really appreciate if someone would want to help me with a detailed guide or explanation of the words.

Pretty much anything would help, thank you!

I have installed CWM on my phone since I now know what that is and I I have also unlocked the bootloader. Thought that may help!
[General Questions and Answers] Irfdiddy:
wat you got to do is find the stock firmware file for your phone and carrier (probably on sammobile.com). Then download odin 1.85 and put your phone into download mode. Then oin odin make sure the "re-partition" box is NOT checked and and click PDA and look for the file you have just downloaded. Then plug your phone into the pc and wait for odin to recognixe then press start.

Now you will be back to normal. Just update as you normally would now

To cack up your apps download Titanium Backup and open it then go into batch mode and backup all your apps but not your data. Then save all tbhuis on your pc and redownload it when youve updated to jellybean and put it back in the Titanium Backup folder and restore all the apps.

You should also do a NAND backup from clockwork mod which wou would have to download and put on your phone the same way mentioned in the first paragraph.

This all assuming you are rooted.

Hit thanks please
[General Questions and Answers] Sime3134:
Well I haven't rooted my phone and I don't think I will in a while so that won't work. But thanks anyways!
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
You don't need Odin. You do need to be rooted. If you can wait 2 weeks you will get the official update.

In pictures, the GS III bezel on the sides look thick. The Skyrocket's is really thin and I'm wondering how they compare.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] chconser:
The pictures are deceiving. This thing is thin. Dare I say it's thinner than my GS2, which I believe is very similar dimensionally to the Skyrocket. So I would answer probably the same bezel thickness (if not thinner) than your Skyrocket. Hope this helps! :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] crossover37:
Yeah the thickness of the phone is thin but I'm referring to the sides next to the screen. I attached a picture of the Skyrocket, see how thin the white part is next to the screen? Is the Galaxy S III's side bezel thicker?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] SiNJiN76:
Don't matter. The screen is still bigger and better. :p
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] chconser:
Ahh, gotcha. Does this help? Hopefully these don't display tiny.

EDIT: Looks like approx 4mm @ the widest. Toward the top & bottom of the screen the sides of the phone actually taper in slightly & it's approx 3mm there. Not easy to see in the pics.

I am also having this problem. Just pulled my 16GB model out of the box, took the OTA, and I am in a "need to update" loop.

Other things I've tried:

- Deleting data for the app

- Uninstalling and reinstalling the update

- Clearing cache from recovery

- Flashing the stock ROM (pre-OTA)

Even after backing off to the out of the box ROM, still in an update loop. Took the OTA again and still looping.

I'm new to the Samsung platform and NFC in general but I'm a bit aprehensive about rooting/flashing another ROM at this point because I don't want to brick the secure element. I would assume I am OK since there is no wallet profile (I can't load the app) but I am not sure if anything gets automatically created the first time you launch the app.

I'm about to call Google Wallet support to see if they can offer any advice.

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

Wow, Google support is quick to call back.

The Google Wallet support rep told me that the service is actually down for both the SGS3 and EVO LTE users right now. He had no ETA for when it would return.

I then asked him if I'd brick secure if I updated ROMs right now and he gave me the standard line about rooting is unsupported, etc. When I pressed him, he said the secure element should be fine since I have no profile created yet.

I don't think I'm going to trust him on that though :)

Mine was working. Topped off with $50 last week and now I'm stuck on the update loop!! Can't use my money!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
My wife is in that endless loop also after OTA update and Play store update to wallet. She is not rooted, so I used her as a measuring stick.

Me on the other hand i have tried the modified wallet.apk that supposedly works on any NFC device in the EVO 4G LTE forum and still get the infinite update loop, so I just deleted those took .bak off my original wallet apk and let it be so I wouldn't bork my secure element. Updated the apk in play store and I guess I am just waiting on Sprint or Google to fix the infinite update loop before I mess with it anymore. I am kind of worried I already borked the secure element since it currently impossible to get into the app to do a reset. I can only wipe data manually in the application manager. I still haven't manually done the OTA update from sprint because I couldn't reset wallet.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BrandonEnr7:
I am on stock non-root Sprint 32GB White, all I did to get out of the update-loop was go to the web-based Play Store and tell it to install Google Wallet to my new phone.

The simple fix for non-rooted stock was to update profile and prl then update in play store. That fixed my wife's but my rooted one is still stuck in the loop. I have not done the OTA update yet though. Going to flash stock ROM and unroot tonight to do OTA because this update message is getting annoying!

Hello everyone,

I know this topic has been discussed probably a million times, but I could never find the answer I need. I recently dropped my htc evo 3d and the housing on it got bent. So I want to buy a white housing to replace my damaged housing. The problem is that I can't seem to find the white housing anywhere. Tried Ebay, Amazon, etc, but I can't find anything. The only website that seems to have it is htc repair parts, but they don't seem very legit to me. Here is the link if you want to check it out.

http://www.htcrepairparts.com/htc-evo-3d-c-129_728.html

So has anyone dealt with this website? Is it legit/reliable? Is there anywhere else I can get a white housing/white front bezel from?

thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
ouch... 50 bucks?

Amazon has some blacks for $1.99, seriously. I'd get a black and paint it white. But that is just my cheap ass. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] madmajd:
yea its pretty expensive. The main part that I need is the front bezel because thats the most beaten up part. Painting it is a good idea. Do you know if I can just buy a black bezel and scratch the paint off to make it look like the white version? (it has a brushed aluminum look)
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
Yeah there is a thread where guys removed the paint and polished it up. Some left it brushed looking, Some even painted it red.

before you act like a smart ass and tell me that I need to stop being cheap and get a case, it was IN A CASE when I dropped it. Please stay on topic here, my question was where can I get a white housing.

[HTC EVO 3D] fade2black101:
Jeez, what a strange guy..
[HTC EVO 3D] fade2black101:
Unfortunately can't help you, but I think a white housing would look quite good.

You have to think though, would it be worth spending that much on it? Depends how long you plan to keep the phone I suppose. I just have skme regrets of the amount of moneu I spent on new housing for my HTC Kaiser and Touch Pro 2 in the past and sold the phones not too long after.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ming Wu:
You must be hyper. Somebody's hyper. Lol
[HTC EVO 3D] madmajd:
Thanks for the reply, these look good, but I'm actually looking for an actual housing, not a housing protector.
[HTC EVO 3D] madmajd:
I plan on keeping the phone for about a year or so (if so, then it will be the longest time I kept a phone lol). I really like the features it has, and not everyone has it (almost everyone seems to have a galaxy nexus) so its kind of an exclusive phone i guess you can say. A white housing would actually allow me to sell the phone much faster and for a better price because there isnt a single GSM 3VO in white.

[HTC EVO 3D] androidfantic32:
I was looking for one too. I saw one on eBay but it was 80 bucks. Too much for me:) I think u should get a skin(not a case) it would hide any marks on the front or back and u can get a white one on Amazon.

Has anyone been able to transfer large .mkv movies over to the Galaxy S3 external (or internal) memory using Windows? Every time I try to copy a video over it crashes my windows explorer.

The max file size for FAT32 partitions is 4.0Gb - 1 byte. Anything above that may cause crashes and/or curruption.

If the file you`re trying to copy exceeds that limit, either use exFAT on your external SD card or split the file.

I am running a 4.7ghz pc with 8 gb ram and when I copy files from my phone to computer, two things happen:

1)It is dog @ss slow, takes like 3 hours (my Evo took like 10 minutes)

2)It freezes up the computer constantly (unusable), and then when it is

finished copying, the computer remains out of memory or 98% used of 8 GB!

So there definately is a bug in the Galaxy SIII copying from Windows 7.

I know they made a retarded move to not let you mount it like a USB drive,

so it takes FOREVER, and transfering files as if they were media or camera is

just so slow and stupid. I hope they come out with a fix for this, I know there

is an app from you guys in beta Easy UMS, but I have beta 2, installed busybox, etc., and my computer still can't see the drive with UMS mode.

I think the issue is that you are using MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) to transfer data from pc to GS3 which is the default way in Android 4.0.

Use 'SGS3 EASY UMS' app to mount your SD card as USB mass storage.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jiggytom:
Discovered something while trying to trouble shoot my Facebook push notifications issue.

I had gone through slimming down my processes/wakelocks using AutoRun Manager by disabling certain listeners/services that I know I wasn't going to use.

After doing that, I noticed that my Facebook push notifications and any other push (C2DM) notifications stopped working completely.

It turns out that the issue lies in the Google Services Framework app, more specifically the GTalk portion of it. I had gone in and disabled all listeners relating to Gtalk...there were about 5 or 6 of them. The rest I left enabled. As soon as you disable any single event listener in the Google Services Framework, Push notifications STOP WORKING.

I don't know whether its directly related to GTalk, or just not being able to disable ANY of those listeners under GSF, but it definitely screws up push notifications. That being said, to fix it..I would restore the listeners and then Reboot (only after reboot it would work). Upon starting back up, Push Notifications working again.

I just can't believe Google would put something like that into the GTalk services.

I think this is the reason why we see WakeLocks for GSF/GTALK but we (I) don't actually use it and have it disabled.

Well that's how I spent my day :)
