[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
This is probably a problem with your Kernel or ROM, please flash a stock ROM to ensure that the accelerometer is fine. If you are afraid you might lose anything make a backup or so.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkricardokaka95:
Okay yeah AiRKernel might be the problem. Thanks I'll try it and let you know. Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkricardokaka95:
I went stock.. But AndroSensor is still showing the same reading it was showing on CM9.. And the auto-rotation bug only comes after a few weeks into any ROM.. Also everytime that occurs I get a prompt saying

" Complete action using

Clock

Tune In Radio "

Everytime I get that pop-up I'm stuck on landscape for infinity. So can it be an app problem? It's happened so far on 3 ROM's I've used (KangyU, CM9, Paranoiandroid)

so I doubt whether it is a ROM issue. Maybe a Kernel issue because I've used AirKernel on all 3 of them
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albundy2010:
Could be either I suppose. Not sure how either could cause it though

The sensor read out should be the same no matter what rom is on there. That is normal. The app itself tells you what the read outs from each sensor should be as well
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkricardokaka95:
My point. But what I mean is, If readings are the same then the behaviour should be same as well right? Where is the accelerometer exactly located?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkricardokaka95:
It happened on Stock also :/ stock ics stock kernel. Same popup :/

Accelerometer issue?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
If a new rom and kernel didn't fix it then it might be hardware.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkricardokaka95:
Strangest thing happened. I uninstalled Tune In Radio and voila auto rotate back! So the app was the issue! But any idea what might have possessed that app to do so? :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Xyne:
Hi everyone,

I stumbled upon this forum when searching for a solution for a problem a few weeks ago. I have watched the noob video and believe I have made a proper effort in order to fix my problem myself without bothering anyone. I’d really appreciate if anyone could just make sure I understand things properly.

I, being completely naïve, followed some guide on YouTube on how to root my phone. On the video the yellow triangle that showed up seemed to be an indication that the root was successful.

Upon doing some reading on here I realized I had tripped the flash counter and what that means. Upon realizing this I began to read and try to figure out how to reset the flash counter.

Turns out I am on Android Build 2.3.6 (UCKK6) which to my understanding does not work with a jig. It seems to me that I can flash a 2.3.4 (UCKH7) and THEN I will be able to use a jig to reset my flash counter. I believe I need to use the second link in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18859438&postcount=199

Just for reference would I need to flash a stock UCKK6 in order to fully restore my warranty? My phone originally came with 2.3.6.

After resetting the counter I intend to use method 2C in this thread in order to re-root my phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1311081

Am I correct in saying that in order to flash a custom ROM I need to use method 3A in the previous link in order to flash without tripping the counter / using ROM Manager? I plan on trying out CM7 first.

My Kernel Version is 2.6.35.7. I backed up my apps through Titanium since I really wrap my head around getting CWM working properly : (

Please let me know if I didn’t provide enough information or detail and I will do my best to get you whatever you may need. I’m very new to smartphones in general so please forgive me if I lack some understanding.

Thanks you for your time, it is greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jemack:
Just fyi, if you flash an ics rom you can reset the flash counter with an app.

Flash stock UCLE5 ICS rom with Odin. Root them. After you can reset flash counter with TreangleAway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You should be able to use the jig to reset the flash counter on UCKK6. The code that governs the flash counter is contained in the secondary bootloader. A few of the 2.3.6 leaks had a crippled secondary bootloader, but the OTA update from 2.3.4 did not touch the bootloader, and phones that shipped with UCKK6 had the original secondary bootloader.

If you for some reason have a phone with a crippled bootloader, confirmed by not being able to reset the flash counter with a jig, then you would need to flash the original secondary bootloader using Odin. There is an Odin flashable tar in the Download Repository.

The advice about flashing ICS and then using Triangle Away is also good.

If you want to stay on Gingerbread, then follow the guide. 2C and 3A are probably the easiest.

If you want ICS, go to this thread instead.
[HTC One V] fluffs:
I bought my HTC One V just in May and 3 weeks ago it died. The phone was idle and was working fine before and then it just wouldn't respond. Could not turn it on, charge it or anything.

I didn't root the phone or mess around with it apart from adding applications from the google play store.

I took it to the service centre and they said that some sort of liquid was spilled on the phone and that the motherboard is oxidized! I am 100% sure that nothing was spilt on the phone or was the phone in any area where it was humid.

Could this problem be a factory fault? and if so shouldn't the service centre replace my phone?

I forgot to mention that the phone seemed to overheat while using it.
[HTC One V] singhal_apoorv:
I have faced the same issue mate...

The phone went dead abruptly, with me doing nothing.

But when I went to the service centre, they sent it for repair and and what I got back was a different phone (different IMEI number). Although it took two weeks for the entire process.

This is some hardware issue with HTC One V, with more and more people reporting that their phone is going dead for no reason at all.
[HTC One V] fluffs:
My problem is that the service centre is refusing to replace it. They told me I had to pay for it to be repaired and the repair costs as much as the phone!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
For anyone interested in changing their PRL, the method is as simple as ever.

This is on a Sprint phone but should work with any CDMA carrier.

*I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE*

0. Make sure you're on a Touchwiz ROM. This can be stock or modified, as long as it's Touchwiz.

1. Be rooted!

2. Find your MSL using this handy guide over here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1745888

3. Make sure you have downloaded the phone's drivers onto your computer.

4. Open your phone's dialer and type *#7284#"

5.PhoneUtil should now be open. Click on "Qualcomm USB Settings" and select "DM + Modem + ADB." Remember to change this back after you change your PRL.

6. Plug your phone into your computer; let your phone recognize the phone.

7. Download your preferred PRL from the internet. I usually use 11115, but you can use whichever one you find best.

(Verizon users, obviously choose the appropriate PRL for your carrier. I used a Sprint one.)

8. Open "Device Manager" on your computer; click on "Ports" and see which COM port your phone is connected to on your PC.

9. Use the program "CDMA Workshop" to connect to your phone by selecting the correct COM port, clicking "Connect," and then clicking "Read."

10. Go to the "Security" tab and put in your MSL into the box under "SPC." Click the "SPC" button and click "Send." It should say that the phone is unlocked.

11. Under PRL, click "Write" and select the PRL you want to switch to.

12. It should say that it successfully wrote; exit the program and let it reboot the phone when it asks.

13. Enjoy your new PRL!

I have been told by several people that a simpler method works using only your phone ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1660740), but I have not had a chance to try it myself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
but why change it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
I guess PRLs are probably more of a Sprint issue (just because we generally roam much more) but Verizon users may choose to use older PRLs that they may have found worked better for them, or perhaps use a modified Alltel/Sprint mixed PRL to improve general coverage when going out of Verizon's coverage zone.

I'm not completely familiar with Verizon's PRLs as of yet, but will look into them. I would now but I'm on vacation :).

I do have one PRL on my computer that will prefer to roam to Sprint if there is no Verizon reception available (which, believe it or not, actually happens sometimes). When I get back from vacation I will attach the file to the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
CDMA Workshop costs money.

I can't do this with QPST?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
You can do this with QPST, however why would anyone on Verizon want to change their PRL? The only other networks you can roam onto are slower and drop calls frequently.

If you insist, I'll PM you how to do it with QPST.

OP:

Why is this in the development section? It's a guide. Plus you already have it posted in General and in the Sprint Development. Since it works on multiple devices, consider just having one OP in the General section. It makes it easier for us and for you to check up on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
This is posted in development because in the Sprint development forum guides and how-tos are allowed. I have already requested that the mods delete the one on general, especially since this only works on CDMA.

I'm on vacation out West and actually get six bars using Sprint as opposed to the friend I'm traveling with, who gets none on his Verizon iPhone. I guess it really depends where you are in the country.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
Well of course this only works on CDMA devices... That's what a PRL is for; CDMA devices.

P.S. Tell your friend to update his Profile and PRL by going into the settings and he'll get reception.

---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

I'm not sure if my PM sent or not. It's being very "buggy" I'll just post it here:

How to Update PRL Manually:

You must have your respected device's drivers installed prior to starting.

1. Download and Install QPST

2. Open QPST Configuration in the "QPST" folder under Programs

3. Disable debugging on your device

4. Open your phone's dialer and type *#7284#"

5. Switch to "CP" or "Modem"

6. Plug in your device to the computer

7. Click on the “Ports” tab and “Add a new port”

8. Select the “COMXX – USB\QC Diagnostic” and click ok. If you don’t see a port, uncheck the box for "Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only" and add all of the USB/Unknown ports. One of them should show an active phone.

9. Click “Start Clients” on the top of the program and open Service Programming

10. Select your device

11. Click "Read from Phone" and enter "000000" (or your MSL if 0000000 doesn't work)

12. Click the "Roam" tab

13. Click "Browse" and select the PRL you wish to use

14. Click "Write to Phone"

Phone should reboot with the PRL you specified
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
I couldn't get QPST to recognize the phone no matter what I did, so I used CDMA Workshop. You should be able to find a free (legal) “demo" version of it online.

And he updated his PRL before we left Las Vegas to see the national parks, he still had no service while I had about 5 or 6 bars.

Although most of the places I'm going to out here have no service for all carriers from what I've seen lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
Should work with QPST. I've never had an issue with the program itself not recognizing anything.

What are you running Linux or Windows?

I'd just install Kies and to be safe also install the drivers online. Then read step 8. A LOT of people were freaking out over nothing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlexDeGruven:
I'm not sure this is quite relevant in either carrier's LTE space, as PRL updates are now handled automatically when the LTE radio activates (it's how GSM does things, and LTE is a GSM derivative).

For example, on Verizon LTE phones, *228 does nothing at best and smokes your SIM at worst. In most cases, getting a PRL update is nothing more than just rebooting your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
I'm using Windows; the program recognizes it in a COM port but can't determine the device and won't let me edit anything for the phone as a result.

I never had a problem with my Epic 4g, but for some reason this phone just won't work for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
+1 Another reason why I was wondering why people want to flash different PRLs on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
The PRL I'm referring to only affects CDMA coverage. This method only refers to a method changing the CDMA roaming, as there is no LTE roaming anyway (and no need for PRLs).

I mean I could be wrong about this since this is Verizon and I'm referring to things I know from Sprint LTE phones, but I know (almost for sure) CDMA roaming is still relevant because voice and texts require CDMA coverage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
When using QPST, Generic CDMA is sometimes sufficient to do simple tasks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] StrumerJohn:
Yes and the PRL affects CDMA coverage. Unless you never reboot your phone, flashing PRLs would be sort of useless, unless your in the one spot in the whole country Verizon doesn't cover.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
But the newest PRLs are not always the best PRLs. I know on Sprint that sometimes people will report better coverage using an older PRL, so flashing an older/modified PRL could be beneficial.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
Thread opened. Thread in general closed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AlpineMan:
What version of QPST are you using? I tried 2.7 Build 378, and I get an error message saying "Roaming list receive failed" after entering my correct MSL code. Looking to see if perhaps build 385 is needed...unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nforce4:

Well I live where USCC has coverage on the main highway and Verizon does not. There for a while my buddy has Verizon and it had the same signal strength as my USCC phone. Now nobody has Verizon coverage for a good 10 mile stretch then a town the about 7 more miles of no coverage. What gives?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Or, you could just make a contact for *22899.

:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
Thought that was bad with this phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
*228 is, but *22899 worked just fine on my Nexus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xsteven77x:
is this somewhat pointless at this point? I have only ever seen 15145 for the prl on our phones. Is there some other one I'm not aware of?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrostic:
Were you going to attach this? My company has repeaters for sprint but not for Verizon so I need to be able to use these repeaters when inside.

Apparently the 4G sim card determines the PRL automagically for our phone.

I don't know that we can actually change it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jarnow94:
I know that changing the PRL does work on the Verizon model; whether or not the change will stick after a reboot, I can't tell you.

As for that PRL, I couldn't get it to stick on my phone or my friend's phone. I'll try searching for the original thread I got it from, I accidentally deleted it from my computer :banghead:

Windows 7 Laptop

QPST 2.7.378

SPH-L710 (Sprint Stock Android 4.1.1) Not rooted

the steps provided to use with QPST do not work

i can see the phone in QPST Configurator and it shows its esn and phone number.

if i try to "Start Clients>Service Programming>Read from phone" and i enter SPC it does read a tiny bit then gives error:

"the phone has stopped responding to memory read/write commands"

if i try to "Start Clients>Software Download>Backup" it reads all the way upto 47% then gives this error:

"Status = Memory Backup Failed"

"Errors = Received an invalid command from phone"

if i try to "Start Clients>EFS Explorer" a screen pops up and says "Phone Selection" and my phone shows there so i select it and enter my SPC and hit OK an it says

"The phone you have chosen does not support an embedded file system. Do you wish to cancel the connection to the phone?"

On the phone *#7284# i dont see any "CP but i do MODEM" but modem didnt work for me so i selected PDA Mode and then "DM+MODEM+ADB"

USB Debugging is OFF

so please tell me more as i dont believe this method works for qpst.

maybe i have wrong drivers but i dont think i would have got to 47% during the backup or a partial "read from phone" in service programming.

thanks and really would like to use qpst but something isnt correct. almost there but not quite yet.

to the people giving this guy crap about not understanding why to change the prl.

i dont know what to say to you.

to us people that need to change the prl (well we understand the OP and why he made this guide)

just want to say thanks to the op but i am not getting same results with qpst and my SPH-L710 as you.

could you please verify to make sure you process works and what drivers i should have (a link or exact file name)

i have keis drivers installed and samsung drivers and i think even windows drivers.

this phone has a ton of drivers depending on which mode it is in

i think i have correct ones as QPST Configuration see it just fine when i add the usb port

in my device manager i see (under ports)

"Samsung Mobile USB Serial Port COM5"

this is correct i believe (the driver = "Samsung Electronics" version = 2.9.505.831

thanks again

umm sorry to bump this, but someone should really put a big disclaimer saying doing this can get you kicked of your carrier. I used to be on sprint with the hero and I was using verizon/alltel prls so i was always roaming but I had literally three times the data speed eventually sprint got mad sent me a letter saying "you seem to be roaming to much so you have one month to find a new carrier" so I was pretty much forced to switch to verizon.
