[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tdodd:
Having bought a German Note I initially upgraded to stock LPY for ICS. It was dreadful. Twice I returned to Gingerbread for safety and stupidly gave LPY another chance after a short while. Each time it never failed to be crap. It didn't matter whether or not I wiped stuff - it was just rubbish.

I did try an AOKP ROm for a bit, but that had too many problems for my tastes so a few days ago I bit the bullet and went for the stock LQ2 ROM for the UK (which is where I live) and quite simply I have not had the problems which seemed to plague LPY. So, I'm on a stock ICS ROM, rooted, and quite happy with performance and battery life. Mind you, time will tell if it stays that way, but so far so good.

Just wanted to know which AOKP/AOSP rom has given u guys the best daily driver experience? I've tried a few but I kept getting a phone audio bug and I can't use it. I really just want a DD. Thanks guys.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RabidSmurf:
What is the audio bug?

All of the aosp roms are based on cm9 i believe so they will all have similar bugs. I am using a nightly build of cm9 and haven't noticed any audio problems. It's a great rom.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
Greetings. Today I just came across a new device from the guarantee, the old x8 restarting for no reason. I received the new phone, I had 11w29, as the eternal model, I tried to unlock bootloader, went well, and the last phase, I hung up, and no longer open, even if i charge it(on first x8, i had no problem). Whether it's the button or I try to put in recovery. Help,I don't know what to do. Excuse the English, not mastered very well.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:

sorry, so what is your problem?

unlock BL or what?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
its a hard brick
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
I think it is hard brick, but not sure what happened. The old phone was identical (11w29) (11w48) and I unlocked without problems. Why it happened that? Know if this is the warranty repair?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
from what i understood, the unlock process was somehow interupted,thats the problem, if your warranty is still active you can go to the repair shop....

"The old phone was identical (11w29) (11w48)"

what do you mean by that, which one was 29 and which one was 48, whats the identical of them?! if the one that hard bricked was 11w48 then there is nothing wrong its been hard bricked because it is 11w29+
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
It's hard to say exactly, but s1tool, are displayed two values​​, one with and another with 11w48 11w29, these values ​​are identical to the two phones. I was even curious if something can be done to guarantee. The process was not interrupted, you just told me ainchid phone and finally, closed, and surprise, not answered. Now I have a brand new phone, which ran almost two hours. :(
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
man, open the back of your phone, remove the battery and see at the phone, there must be a number like that:11wxx or 12wxx (not the one at the battery,but the one on the phone!)

if that number is 11w29+ you shouldnt try to unlock bootloder!!!
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masograd:
Try use PCC and return to factory settings, to 2.1

After that try flash, bootloader, kernel, rom....
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
@Masograd, did you know what is hard brick? The phone is not detected by PC, or not charging, no signs of life.

@stamatis16 it's some problem right here. The old phone wrote here does not write anything with s1tool Only I saw that. Honorable to the old phone I had those pin plate, this can be seen in picture (golden point). I tried to unlock because s1tool showed me the same values​​(11w29), and I had no problem.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
do you mean that you used this method?

why?!

you have remove the backsticker, do you remember what it used to write?(what number11w??)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
No, that thought, that's why I attached a picture where because I can't read the anything(not write anything useful)(under battery). Now, s1_erom:r8a029, loader version: r4a045.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
oh i see... now its bricked right?! you could have tried this:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1700465

i dont know what that s1_erom numbers are, but i dont think they have anything to do with 11wxx
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srsdani:
A small problem, phone is brick, and the warranty certificate is not passed new IMEI. But what I noticed, I have a code under the battery: SI; Type; S/N and... 12W03( written on the right, near the type code)... facepalm
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
yea

if it isnt the exact date that sticker had too then its sure close(but i think its the same).....

as long as your warranty hasnt expaired go at shop and sent it for repair...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] husky168:
Any fully rooted GB rom before process the upgrade to Criskelo or Cassies ICS Rom please install SuperSU (Chainfire) first and those already done please click and update if available and somehow will update the binary , if successful, you can now flash the ICS and gain full root. otherwise partial root will most likley occur.

Once flashed the new ICS rom then update the the SuperSU again. Then you are done with fully rooted rom without issues.

I have tried twice and worked fine. it was very painful to have partial root and flashing CF root LQ3 with mobil odin did not resolve my partial root problem

I personally like Cassies rom and speedmod together. Working very well.

I Hope these help.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Vailord:
help!

hi i have a similar problem: my original firmware was gingerbread 2.3.6 lc1 acording to dr. ketan guide fi only way to get root was a downgrade wich i did i flash trought odin the kj1 2.3.5 pre rooted rom everything went well got full root only problem was the null null keyboard besides that superuser updated binaries just fine...

The trouble started when i flashed abysskernel to wipe completely and flashes kingdroid v7 trought the aroma installer , make my choices and the kernel that i picked was speedmod k11-3, restarted... room boted just fine... but i realized superuser app was changed too super su , i open it, tried to update binaries but failed , tried to install new busybox trought ericcson app and failed also... so then i tried to flash trough mobile odin the cf kernel but that was a failure and it end with loosing root,,,

now im on kingdroid v7 supersu updated fine , but i still cant write or mount system files , still on speedmod k 11-3... will doing these step you wrote end in gaining full root again on the rom that i have?

thank u for ur answer!:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rraaka:
if you choose CF root in aroma while installation you boot up fully rooted,

once booted check your root situation, update binaries if need be , then you can change kernel to your preference
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Solution

After update to ICS using mobile odin, if you find partially rooted, i think SuperSU busyboxinstaller,zip still work from recovery and will update inary and will get full root.

@Vailord

Wat you have need to use abyss once you are on safe GB ROM ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] friedje:
There is no such thing as partial root...

it's like being married, you are married or you are not,

there is no such thing a being partially married
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
agreed ,partial root is a myth ,the only thing causing the so called "partial root" is a corruption in the system partition causing it to refuse to mount\unmount

the solution is to flash a kernel that does not automatically mount system partition during recovery (like CM9 kernels) ,and then format system partition and then flash\ nandroid restore your ROM.

other than that partial root is a myth!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
It is like 'commited':p

It allows you to use many appl like titanium but dont allow to mount system n that's why it is partially rooted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rraaka:
true, being on a custom rom and saying we dont have root , its a self- contradictory statement

but the term is being used now for want of a better one......

Hi Guys,

Verizon model is protected from flashing unsigned/modified boot.img and recovery.img. Which means there is no known root method as for now for SCH-I535.

Stay tuned for more informations as we are doing research now.

Rooted stock boot.img issue:

CWM Recovery.img flash issue:

Research status: 10%

Update [7/7/2012]

News about locked Verizon model is spreading over the websites and main tech-related portals. Hopefully we will get some detailed info soon.

Update [7/7/2012]

It looks like it has been rooted by using system.img trick (system.img is not signed)

have you seen any flash failures in Odin on the GSIII due to battery being in or out? With the Charge you had to have the battery out while entering download mode, then immediately place battery in before flashing or it would fail everytime.

Also, how exactly do you enter download mode for the new guys?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
I am going to have to ask again.....what exactly is the process of entering download mode? Do you have to pull and replace the battery at any point in order to avoid failed flashes?

Updating for GSIII

Turn off phone

connect USB cable from PC to phone while holding down volume down button, home button and power button simultaneously until android logo appears

press volume up button

see that Odin detected and connected to the device

flash file using PDA button

profit?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] akanealw:
I was unable to get the phone into download mode without the battery in. I tried volume down/power as well as volume down/home/power while plugging in the usb cable. All I ever got was a single vibration but no warning triangle.

I got into Odin download mode by holding volume down, home and power. I had to do it about 3 times before I got it right. However, that was for another purpose, and I have NOT tried to flash this image.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] madmaverickmatt:
Ok what should we see download mode, I see the green Android and it says downloading, I herd some one else say there was a yellow triangle?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
it was a yellow triangle on older phones, the green android is correct for the GSIII, that's download mode, how did you enter it? i see above others have done volume down, home and power together....updated my OP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] akanealw:
Holding volume down/home/power should bring up the green triangle. Then you press volume up to go into Odin mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] akanealw:
Sorry jamesnmandy, I misread your earlier posts. I thought you were suggesting other methods, not that you were asking how to get to download mode on the s3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neyenlives:
nope, no problem, I found it was probably going to confuse people so i edited it to reflect the correct method for the GSIII, thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] madmaverickmatt:
Any body having any luck with this method?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AdamLange:
You need to be in download mode, then connect phone , put kernel.tar as PDA and flash.

Report any issues, i dont have this version of phone. It will not break it, in worst case u will need to flash oryginal kernel (which you can take from full stock rom post).

I flashed my EVO 4G to Deck's latest cm9 and everything is working great.

Hopped on QPST and configured for Cricket. Moved phone to account by Cricket

CSR and did *228 and all was well.

Voice & Text work, I don't care about MMS.

The problem is, that I have data, but don't have data.

As you can see from this screen, the phone is on the mobile network

and I am able to resolve names using the terminal emulator and ping.

But nothing comes back.

I can open web browser with no error, but the page never loads.

I can open facebook app, no error, just never loads.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadcrayon:
Thank you for the reply.

This has actually been happening for every rom I try.

I just spent over an hour on the phone with cricket, outright told them that

I had a flashed phone, and this is what is happening, and what am I doing wrong?

They transferred me to another CSR where we checked some settings.. obviously

I am way ahead of them as I've been in QPST for hours checking things..

So, after I informed them how far ahead of them I was, they told me to go to

the corporate store and they've made a note on my account that they were

unable to help me and I have been referred.

Crap!

So, I've decided that I actually do have a connection as terminal emulator is

resolving ping google.com to it's ip, I do have an active connection.

It is just super slow!!

Anyone have any ideas? I have another cricket phone right next to this one

that is actually a cricket android phone and they are using the same prl file.

So, I am still stuck.

Here is more proof I have an active data connection, and look how fast

I currenty have an iPhone 4. Had it for about 2 Years and have dropped it 2-3 times but only from like 1.5 Meters.

I always keep my iphone on me incase I want to quickly search something or remotely get into a server. So when I got bed I also listen to music on it and then fall asleep. Every morning I pretty much end up sleeping ontop of my iPhone 4 as it sinks down under me lol.

Im going to get a Galaxy S3 soon. I was wondering if sleeping ontop of the Galaxy S3 would be an issue. I think the Galaxy S3 screen should be strong enough for me to sleep on. Since the phone pushes down into soft material anyway.

Are there any flaws in the Galaxy S3 is that I should know about.

I heard of a charging issue (Where the i9300 wouldn't charge) and it requires reboot. But I think someone stated that a software update fixed the issue.

Please let me know of any resolved flaws and current flaws to take note of with the Galaxy S3.

Also I'm going to buy a metal Aluminium bumper that goes around the Galaxy S3. Which will take the impact whem the phone is dropped.

I suppose the bigger the screen the easier is to break it, the iphone only has a small screen, also the S3 screen is 20% thinner than the S2 , though they say it`s just as strong.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtechx:
I've dropped mine twice. About 4ft to pavement both times. A couple marks around the outer bezel. The first time it hit right beside the screen, landed on an angle then the screen went down flat and it bounced off the pavement and up then back down into the screen again. Absolutely 0 damage to the screen, yet. Waiting on my Otterbox...

I can take a picture with my SLR when I get home if you want.

I was hammered one night and woke up with my S3 under my back. So I did actually sleep on mine inadvertently. It is fine.

Who knows though. There are so many variables with dropping or sleeping on your phone that anything could happen.

They should really test these phones in these situations. I don't drop my phones I only sleep ontop of them.

Offically the Galaxy S3 is tough enough for me to sleep on.
